Ortiz didnt go at all on that "strike" call by the 3rd base ump

 

Surprised he wasnt thrown out. Haha wow, Ortiz yelled out of the dugout "this is horseshit"

 

The overhead camera angle made it look like he didn't hold up, damn it all.....still kind of a reach....

 

 

He was also saying "f*** you" and didn't get tossed......thank Gawd!

 

BB for Manny, come on JD!!!

These animated umps need to get the boot. They think they are the show, not the game. I can't help but believe that someone who thinks people care about their antics will ensure that they get involved to do their schtick.

 

I think it was 700 last night who said he liked this Twins crew. Blyleven is OK, but the PBP guy is useless.

Tavarez meltdown time

 

Getting tired of NESN & Boston writers touting him as a solid starter this year, hopefully this makes them wonder about what theyve been smoking

 

To date- 7.04 ERA

23 innings, 25 Hits, 18 Runs, 4 HRs, 10 Walks, 16 Ks

For all the s*** he catches, Tavarez has been solid tonight. A little better luck, like Jeff Cirillo remembering he's Jeff Cirillo, and a little better D and he's unscathed.

Even without Wily Mo's error, Tavarez will still be where he's at right now because of his control problems that inning. He's a passable spot starter but not one that should be in there for the season's length

 

I will give him credit where its due pitching better than expected his last 2 games

I disagree. I think he pitched around Kubel with a base open, figuring he would get the DP from Cirillo. He pitched Cirillo fine, but the only problem was Cirillo fouled off about 5 good pitchers' pitches with 2-strikes on him. He wasn't wild to Cirillo, even the balls were borderline. After that it was cheap IF hits.

 

Santana got the pat on the back from Gardenhire. Chased him after 5. Good stuff.

Way to go dusty, on base 3 times- Single, RBI Double, Walk

 

EDIT: That was weird. After Lugo struck out

 

The 1st base ump naturally held his fist up in the air, representing a punch out naturally. But he held his fist up in the air while walking down the 1st base line

 

Lugo followed by pushing the catcher Redmond out of the way

Hunter was struck out on 1-2. Even the Twin's guys were like, "Where was that pitch?" This has been the shittiest year in recent memory from the umps. Just completely inconsistent from game to game and AB to AB.
