That strike 3 call on Holt is inexcusable as an MLB ump. That was a foot outside the plate.
I've been saying for a long time I don't want an electronic umpire at home, but the umps are doing their damndest to sell me on it.

Tennis has the ability to use instant replay to challenge in/out calls but MLB does not...let that sink in...I'm getting to the point to accept an Umpire's union strike to allow calls like that to be challenged by replay.

Ouch, swept by Seattle. Mostly close games though, decent pitching overall but not scoring many runs. On to Colorado...

Just bettering our draft position for 2022.

If we can get consecutive Top 2 pitches and get no worse than the 2nd best College pitcher, by 2025, we'll have two quality SPs right after all of the hitters we have are gone.

This last week got decidedly less fun to watch. Perhaps it has something to do with scoring 6 runs over a 4 game sweep.

Lots of bad MLB teams this year, especially in the NL. As bad as the Rangers are, it's kind of painful that the tank job so far would only be good for the 5th pick with a few other teams close to slipping below them too. That said, they are picking up steam at losing.

Rangers seem to be the most unlucky team in mlb.

When we're trying to win. Trade prices are high. Sellers have the advantage in the market. Lots of teams are going for it.

When we're trying to lose. There is several other teams who are willingly to strip down their rosters way worse than us and lose more. Meanwhile, the trade market is flooded with sellers and the buyers are stingy teams who would rather lose that year then risk prospects to go for it.

Our injury luck seems to be worse than everyone else too.

so does the Rangers pitcher get the loss with a runner on second only because he made the last out of the inning before?

Yes, box score shows Martin with the loss, 0-2 on the season now.

Yes, but no RBI nor Game Winning RBI for driving in that run. So he did not give up an earned run yet got tagged with the loss. So weird.

BTW - I will be watching Saturday's game from the expensive luxury suite of a multibillion dollar organization. If I happen to make eye contact with any of you great unwashed, I may wave to you in between bites of caviar and sips of champagne

That reminds me.... I was watching a MLB talk show and they were talking about catchers dropping a knee to the ground and how it interferes with the ability to move after a ball ( they used Trevinos passed ball with runner on 3rd as example) now I noticed it was Heim who dropped to one knee before the pitch and the ball was able to get passed him.

wow I'm shocked. Guess I don't know the rule, but it certainly looks like Calhoun is trying to slide into the fielder
