    Two Diamond Club tickets available for the Sunday night game.  Free.  Need to pick them up from me in 77027. Rules: Poster must be a big contributor to this thread/last years shag thread.  No gue

Really need to start getting the next guy out after getting the second out

Is y'all's picture doing a little static flicker for a fraction of a second every so often?

Nah, you're having a rage induced stroke.

Bregman hasn't played as well since he was hotdogging with the Eovaldi video.

he's been fine in the field.

fuck, verlander, really can't rely on a chase there on 3-2.

that's a swing

big surprise - another call we don't get.  but hey, at least the announcers thought he went.  again.

I hate to be a conspiracy fucker, but it's hard not to think mlb has sent out an edict: we want boston to advance

Baseball is as rigged as the WWE

Why even go through the charade of the game if the umps are going to be so clearly biased?

Got him!  Nice escape but lots of extra pitches because of the error.  I think JV may be good for 150 tonight though, so we're still good.

No 3rd base ump in high school misses that call. 

one of the few breakdowns of discipline by the bosox at the plate

and that's what aces do.  after all, he's obsessed with the number 3.

in a weird way, that's almost better?  let's get some momentum and score some runs.

re: 170 pitches - i would think he's good for 120.  pitch count isn't his issue though, it's that one weird inning where he just loses it.  and it's rarely his last inning.  hopefully we just saw his bad one.

I'm sure Verlander can throw 170 pitches today, right?
It's been estimated that Nolan threw 283 pitches in a 13 inning game pre pitch count era. So why not.

Yep. And for sure, anyone else on the mound for us after that bad call doesnt shut down the next batter. They score 2 to 4 instead. Verlander is the fucking man, but you shouldnt have to beat both the umps and the winningest team in baseball at the same time. 

They aren’t even trying to hide it.

Sure would be nice to have a catcher that can hit above the Mendoza line.

As a conspiracy theorist myself, you would think the league would want the Sox to win in 6 in Boston to maximize value. Maybe even let it get to game 7 if they can control the outcome. Game 7s are high revenue.

I.e. they're telegraphing it?

Did the ump have to check the count before deciding to call that a strike?

That is a word that would apply. 

Lol. That never gets called. But only in a Boston Houston playoff game. Fuck

oh you gotta be kidding me.  even vazquez was surprised.

To be fair, that last pitch was just inside the TV strike zone rectangle. He made it look like a ball though. For sure, it would have been a ball if an Astro was pitching though.

it definitely wasn't the worst called strike this game, or even that inning, but he definitely looked surprised.

That curve is filthy.

Keep rolling, JV.  Runs are coming.
