Getting no calls either. I feel for any pitcher who feels like he can't pitch to the edges because he knows he won't get the calls. When the ump forces you to throw 6 strikes and they have to be down the middle, you're going to be in tough.
You talk so far out of your ass. I suppose the .375 hitting with RISP during the win steak was all on the players and not the coaching? Or do you think the coaching staff just got tired of winning ball games and told their players to start sucking?
That's why blaming coaches when things go badly is stupid, unless you give them equal credit when it goes great. And you sure as hell don't.
Did you just credit to the coach for ellsbury hitting a sac fly?
Christ, by your logic, when Gardner didn't score on that exact play last night because he didn't go back to tag, he should have been benched For making a bad fundamental mistake.
