I’ve been trying to figure out this guys strike zone all night. It’s all over the place.

The catcher is being rewarded for ridiculous frame jobs

He doesn’t even know his own strike zone

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Really struggling to find clutch 2 out hits in Arlington

These catchers that pull the ball up from the shins to the belt and get the call is amazing. It’s blatantly obvious.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

WTF that was the same pitch they got twice last inning?!

 

[MT Cowboy]

So where exactly did that second pitch from Gabe just miss? Exact height as what you just rang Ortiz up on!

 

[Chairman of the Board]

T9
Ground ball single up the middle
Sac successful, out at 1st
--Walton out and has a word with the ump first
Intentional walk
Lineout to CF, runner tags and moves to 3rd
Infield pop out

Nice job by Gabe Davis with some clutch pitches

Pokes with a chance to walk it off with some heavy hitters up

 

[Poke]

Good chance to see if Gabe Davis has grown.

 

[MT Cowboy]

Why do I have to ask EVERY SINGLE GAME what it's so difficult to find competent umpires? Especially for the conference tournament! This garbage on display for the whole country to see is an embarrassment.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Think he had him at 2nd? Would have been close

I thought he could have

 

[Poke Skywalker]

Was our SS or 2nd baseman just not there? Runner wasn’t even halfway to 2nd when the ball was fielded.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Probably. I don't fault him for making the safe play

Because there is no accountability in umpiring. No reason to be better because they go unpunished.

Well done Davis!!!

 

[Poke]

Great job by Davis. That is a huge sign for the post season

 

[Poke Skywalker]

Come on now, walk it off!

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Outstanding job by Davis. Pokes have Benge, Schubart, and Meola up....time to end this

Weren't at the bag quite yet no. Could have thrown to where they would be and gotten the tag in time but that's dicey.
