Series win vs the umps while running on two cylinders

This team is elite no doubt about it

With the runs created for the A's by the umps, we could have swept the series if the umping was better. Although, can't say we deserved to win the 2nd game with Ryu stinking the joint out.

 

[TGB]

During the past 2 days, the technology exposed the home plate ump as either incompetent or biased

And if you believe Buck, and I don't see any reason why you shouldn't, they have also been instructed by the union to stand off-center of the plate to protect themselves from backswings, so they don't even have a proper view of the plate.

Strikezone tech desperately needed. Not sure why the umps are against it. It's not like you won't still need the home palte ump for other stuff.

Nervous about Kikuchi starting

 

[canucksfan]

His control sucks

 

[as Pure as Evil]

of course he gets squeezed

 

[Suntouchable13]

f***ing Kikuchi, throw strikes. The starting pitching needs to get their shit going. Enough already.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

So great start to this one already!

 

[hoc123]

That was looking like a disaster to start.

 

[as Pure as Evil]

this collins character has some pop

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Man what a great trade that was!! lol

 

[Forgotusername]

That trade is looking good right now.

 

[The Nemesis]

Z.P. Collincibia

 

[Morgs]

Collins is just crazy rn

 

[Bluelines]

I think Evovaldi is tipping his pitches, this is the first time I've seen him pitch. When he throws a fast ball he plants his front foot quickly with force, when he throws breaking pitches his plant foot is much slower and planted with finesse. Watch how he points his plant foot on fastballs and breaking pitches.

 

[hoc123]

Oh no, Angel Hernandez is in this series

 

[Blitzkrug]

explain where the f*** Collins learned how to hit.

 

[TMLeafer]

Lol Angel Hernandez. Ok

 

[PanniniClaus]

Oh no, Angel Hernandez is in this series

Say hello to number 74 of 74..

 

[canucksfan]

Kikuchi needs to throw his FB, slider, and changeup and that's it. Drop the cutter.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Jesus, I didn't realize this guy throws 97.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Kikuchi needs to throw his FB, slider, and changeup and that's it. Drop the cutter.

That's like Kikuchi's best pitch. You don't just drop that.

 

[The Nemesis]

"I've never watched a Star Wars movie from start to finish."

That tells me everything I need to know, Pat.

 

[canucksfan]

That's like Kikuchi's best pitch. You don't just drop that.

I thought it was the slider?

 

[Blitzkrug]

I'm watching the NESN feed and Bill Burr is on currently riffing on Derek Jeter while bitching about Bo Bitchette and how he's hogging all the hair.

Love it.

 

[canucksfan]

Bichette's defense has improved a lot.
