invisible airwave Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Masahiro Tanaka, pitcher for the Yankees, was struggling a bit last night. Ron Darling, the TBS announcer, was describing Tanaka's situation: “A little chink in the armor for Tanaka here. It’s the first inning where he’s lost a little of his control...." As sure as the sun will come up today, the really stupid Twitter crowd got all outraged. Darling was informed about it, of course, and he felt it necessary to apologize after the game. :facepalm: :facepalm: Still better than Joe Suck, though.

He can get biased and a bit pompous from time to time, but he knows his stuff. He should have never apologized for his "chink in the armor" metaphor. I wish that he had ignored all the BS from the whiny PC crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fordgalaxy Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 It's nearly criminal to include the Yankees with those great (and a couple just so-so) performers. They should be included with the likes of Migos and Cardi B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Pitcher (and part-time slugger) Brandon Woodruff takes Clayton Kershaw DEEP!! That was a cool moment. Congrats to the Brewers. If the Dodgers keep making unforced errors and the umps continue giving a very generous strike zone, Milwaukee will be tough to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 WTF is wrong with these umps behind the plate? Dodgers are getting dicked again tonight with an expanded strike zone in key at bats. Why no electric eye in this day and age. Seriously. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Again tonight... Bases loaded for LA, Muncy at bat. He rightly takes the first pitch, which is clearly outside the strike zone. Yet it is called a strike, putting Muncy at a huge disadvantage in terms of balls/strikes. It also signals that he'll have to swong at bad pitches. He ends up striking out. I may be done with baseball if this is the best they can do behind the plate during the NLS. It just seems stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Milwaukee's Pena just got a called 3rd strike that was 6-8 inches inside. This is ridiculous... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Brewers were negotiating a trade for him, but they wouldn't give up their top pitching prospect, Corbin Burnes, who is pitching for them in the playoffs. Wouldn't it be funny if the next time Burnes faces Machado this week, he....... :scared: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hernandez has no business being an MLB umpire. The Umpires' Union and MLB are cowards for keeping him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
