Some of those were definitely strikes

I agree

Most of these are strikes. The pitchers were throwing sinkers. You think it’s gonna be a ball and in the last five feet it drops into the strike zone. Barely, but definitely a strike. The problem is it looks like it’s gonna be high until the last second and then it drops into the zone. We had a pitcher in high school who could do this all day long. He didn’t have a fast ball worth crap but his curve and sinkers were practically un hittable.

A lot of times these things are contextual and we're not seeing all calls that led up to these events

According to the rules most of those were strikes but if the umpire was calling the same pitch location as balls earlier then they do have a point of argument.

I would just jog to first and say make me leave.

@alanhess9306 26 күн бұрын

Sure you would. There are people who would "help" you leave, but since this was the last out of the game, go to first and stand there while everyone else leaves.

Yea.... maybe 1 or 2 of these were questionable, at best. Most of these are strikes.

I don't care if Skynet is the only alternative, replace these umpires with machines already

Look I love Edmonds as a player but that was a strike to him

Back in the day, those were definitely strikes. I don't much care for the modern strike zone.

When? 1987? That's when the rule was armpits to knees. Ever since then, the top of the strike zone has been "the midpoint between the shoulders and belt." Or we could go back to 1968, when the strike zone was top of shoulders to knees, and really just make it impossible for the hitters.

@@Aaron42J I remember being at an Astros game in the '70s that lasted 22 innings. I got my money's worth on that one. When my pal and I were the only fans remaining in the Astrodome, we chatted with the players and umps.

In my day, we didn’t have strike zones. The pitcher threw the ball and it was the batter’s responsibility to hit it. Nowadays everyone is too soft and woke.
