4/29 vs TB

[Jasonbay44]

JD with a huge hit, this hopefully gets the team going. Need at least 1 more here.

Wow good to see an opposing pitcher getting squeezed.

 

This whole crew of umps thinks home plate is the size of a postage stamp

[Jasonbay44]

Wow good to see an opposing pitcher getting squeezed

 

I wouldn't even say he's being squeezed, they're all out of the zone, close, but not strikes.

[iortiz]

La malaria has to be eradicted right here and right now.

[jung]

I wouldn't even say he's being squeezed, they're all out of the zone, close, but not strikes.

 

Three of the four balls to Moreland could easily have been called strikes and really this entire crew has an odd perspective on home plate. Don't think I have seen so many guys on one MLB crew calling such a tight zone.

[iortiz]

Romo is horrible, we should take the lead here.

[Station 13]

Devers has been stuck up a horses ass

[Jasonbay44]

Bad AB by Devers. Good job by JBJ to at least tie this up.

[jung]

Take the run but was hoping that jbj would get a mistake from Romo and take him out.

[TylerD]

Tie game. Let’s go.

[jung]

In fact, now that I think about it, an entire crew of umps calling a tight zone would definitely help the Rays hitters the way many of them come to the plate more than they would help us.

[iortiz]

It was very cheap.

[jung]

Twenty more pounds Lin...Oh what you could have done with twenty more pounds of weight.

[jung]

Another strike called a ball..this time on Porcello

[Maxbialystock]

Devers has been stuck up a horses ass

 

Yup. He left 6 guys on so far.

[jung]

Unreal...never seen anything like an entire crew like this

[iortiz]

Those 3 pitches were strikes, and Smith only has one. Geez ump!

[jung]

Count is 2-2 and this guy should already be sitting down

[Station 13]

Yup. He left 6 guys on so far.

 

He did that yesterday too.

[iortiz]

Finally a DP well played.

[jung]

Oh look, we finally saw a play nunny can make at 2nd.

 

Cash challenging. He can't believe nunny was part of a successful DP either.

[Maxbialystock]

OK, Porcello is the man so far this season and that is beyond question. Better than Sale and better than Price. I'm pretty sure I said early in the season there was no way, no how he could be effective this year. The 2 run dinger today was off a decent changeup that was low in the zone, but not low enough. The rbi single was off a great pitch, outside and low vs. a lefty bat.

[SoxHop]

That's trouble....

[jung]

Of Course, Cash was right. Nunny can't be part of a successful DP playing 2nd.

[Station 13]

Good start by Porcello.

[jung]

Gotta' give Porcello credit. Has completely reinvented his sequencing and the way he pitches since coming over from Detroit (apparently he knew something about his sinker that we did not know). Won a Cy that people tend to treat as some sort of fluke. Surrounded by all these big names and right now he is the best we have got as a starter.

[Jasonbay44]

JD Martinez is so bad in the field.

[jung]

Nice stab JD. On this team Swihart could be a defensive sub in the outfield for JD.

[Station 13]

Defense is letting the team down.
