Holy fuck..this dickhead HP ump is a piece of work.....

3 straight strikes called for balls...and Niese should be out of the inning..but of course the next batter slaps an rbi single to give the jays a 1-0 lead after 2.
* But Niese needs to nut up there too....

I wanna see some makeup calls go the mets way now.

Umpiring has really regressed this year and it's getting worse.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

I've already seen enough..this ump needs to GTFO..
He rings up Herrera on a ball inside near his ankles????

Sean Barber is his name.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

This Hutchinson dude came in w/ an ERA near 6, but the mets are having lousy AB's and not doing squat against him.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Thru 4, jays lead 1-0.......niese pitching well, defense playing solid....now we just need the bats to get going....

LGM!!!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Tejada hit a 1 out double, but is left stranded.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

3 really good games in this series

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Jays strand a runner at 3rd in the 5th...thanks to Grandy's arm (or maybe a dumb decision by Goins).... possibly both.... and Niese's pitching....getting Reyes to whiff to end the threat.

Still 1-0...heading to the 6th.
Let's Go Bats!!!

FFS

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Rays are up 3-0 on the Nats in the 6th.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

3 really good games in this series

Tomorrow's game is gonna be a hoot.
Colon vs. Dickey
Must see TV.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Cuddyer's 2 out double chases Hutchinson....

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Crap.....mets still scoreless.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

That was Donaldson's first hit in this series??

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Oh..Great... the Jays w/ a leadoff double and a walk that didn't have to be.....

Encarnacion K's...but Colabello hits one up the middle....2-0. Ughhh

Then Niese K's Russell Martin. Onto the 7th

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

bottom 7th...3-0 now...Pillar solo shot to left.

Mets look fatigued...hope it's just a temporary thing...I trust it is.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

R.I.P.

Nelson Doubleday Jr., former #Mets owner, has died.

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Yikes....b2b walks issued by Akeel Morris in his MLB debut for the Mets....

Maybe TC should have brought him in last inning for the bottom of the Toronto order....not the friggin 2-3 & 4 hitters?? Just sayin

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets fail to turn a DP and it goes on to cost them a run....4-0.

8-0 now..... I hate TC for tossing the kid out there to the lions like that.....
