Probably because he threw over 100 pitches in 5 innings

Better he go seven and give up 3 or so I guess.  I'm sorry, he struggled and yet managed to hold down Houston's offense to no runs.  I'll take that. It's not like our bullpen had been overworked.

Are all these walks (from both pitchers) because of the ump's small strike zone? Or are we going to blame the cold weather?

Well, we could blame Rosario...

Damn, ninja'd by the slow guy in a tan Buick sedan.

Odor-easy rockin' the eephus...

I’m just saying, probably not many starters setting the bar at 5 total IP, 0 runs or not.

This umpire is horrid for both sides

Listening to our announcers talk.  Why does Lynn (or anyone else) feel his start was bad?  One of the best offenses scored nothing against him.  What is going on?

Do other teams take umbrage when the opposing pitcher says "I couldn't do anything out there tonight"^* after shutout ball?

That ball 4 did not have a pixel outside of the strikezone according to MLB gameday...

Wow, what a snooze-fest-  or walk-fest, eh?

 

I went to teach a class after the 1st, got back in the top of the 3rd.  Now I wonder if I skimped on the grammar parts or something.

 

What a pinhole zone.

 

That's gotta be right next door to the

 

 

Taking more pitches, or emoting more during radio commercial voiceover work?

 

I don't think that kind of layered and nuanced voice work cannot be taught.   It is a gift.

Either the Foxtrack strike zone is screwed up or the umpire's strike zone is. Guess which I think.

Dick said a-phus pitch instead of eephus pitch

I bet this umpire gets season passes to the polar plunge tank.

yeah, exactly.

The unwritten rules aren't written down anywhere that i know of, so I have to ask.

One time Brad Radke had a win in which he had no strikeouts. After the game he said, "I couldn't get anybody out."

Isn't the way to Danger Zone on the highway?  Not too many people living next to each other there:-)

Dangit, the way Keuchel is pitching if you're going to swing at the first pitch you'd better get on base.

Checking the TD Stylesheet, the correct answer is: yes.

Morrison SCALDS it!

Whatever his actual words, Joe's monotone radio ad voice tells people 'I'm hopelessly boring, but please buy this product anyway because I'm nice and I'm from here'.

 

And fifteen years later, it's still working.

Ish.

Guzman was heard muttering, "yeah, that bum made us do all the work."

Star Trek fans are hating the fact Twins are wearing red shirts...

 

Delish.

I have problems with them, but I think it is from watching the original Star Trek series growing up.   I wonder which player is not not going to survive the episode game.
