The way pitched move it’s so difficult to call balls and strikes which is why MLB need robot umps.

Yeah it's quite sad we have these umpire stats like oh they're 84% accurate with their calls. We have stats we can get in real time that say these guys are wrong 16% of the time and we're just ok with it?
 
Forgot to mention earlier in the game that this was game #2 for Buck to try to claim that stacking your best players at the top of the lineup is about "making it tough for the opposing starter" and not a matter of getting your best guys the most possible plate appearances.

Imagine if you had a batter with a .250 On base percentage. The team had the option to get, for completely free the same hitter but with a .410 on base percentage. And they just said nah because this guy's father and grandfather were on the team for 15 years each so we have to roster this other guy now too because tradition. How quickly would that GM be fired?
