This f***ing ump has ruined my entire f***ing day. f*** him! f*** his family! f*** his f***ing dog!

Link for this? I remember Zaun once saying how their punishment is that they don't get to call the playoffs or some s*** like that.

 

Joe Torre said it, I'm 99% sure it's a thing.

Derp.

 

I understand your objection, but I don't think it's inconceivable that an umpire from New York who has not been friendly to us in the past might not appreciate the Canadian pride on display.

 

I agree he's f***ing awful in general, but he might just have an anti-Canadian bias. It's not tinfoil hat territory IMO.

Both Stroman Ks came on breaking pitches in the dirt. Why he doesn't do this more often with 2 strikes I don't know

 

Pitch selection from Stroman has been puzzling all year.

It's 100% tinfoil hat territory. Ridiculous lmao

I think he will over time. He is a bit stubborn about his pitch selection.

Because no-one in the world is racist? I take it you are fairly young and have not seen much of the world?

I didn't think you were making it up or anything, I was just interested in reading it. While looking I found something about the home plate ump being suspended two games for failing to properly follow a rule, while the other three were fined. I just can't imagine them ever actually being punished for judgment calls, which unfortunately is pretty much their job.

The key is that he needs to start his breaking just above the knees and have it finish down there. When starts his slider and breaking ball at or below the knees, then they're taken for ball for the most part. Stroman need a good 12-6 curve incorporated.

I think you mean xenophobic, not racist.

Yeah, they pay for egregious mistakes.

In the first Obama election, the number one determining factor on both sides was 'because hes black. A disgusting stance either way. Truly a lot of f***ed up people in that nation.
