anyone see what happened?

He was calling anything close a strike until Connor jacked one over the fence and postponed that umps plans.

 

[MississippiHeavyMetalDawg]

3 strikeouts in the 9th. All 3 3rd strikes were "on the corner" of a WIIIIIIIDE plate.

i only caught a glimpse of that last called strike, but it looked bad

 

[HammerOfTheDogs]

With two strikes, YOU GUARD THE PLATE! A CALLED THIRD STRIKE IS A SIGN OF EFFEMINITY! IF YOU'RE FOOLED, YOU WAVE AT IT (IF FOR NO OTHER REASON BULL ****** DON'T LINE UP OUTSIDE THE DUGOUT TO TAKE A TURNS WITH YOU).

The ball never threatened the vicinity of the plate. Cohen got his money's worth on that ejection though.

First one is a warning and if you are ejected again it's a one game suspension.

 

[HammerOfTheDogs]

You defend the plate like that. I'm sick and tired of seeing State players meekly walking to the bench after watching a rally die because of a called third strike.

I'm not sure if anyone can view today for free. It was a quality video feed.

I'm sure Cohen was pissed about the 2 K's prior to Conner 2 run bomb, and yes the strikeouts were WAY wide. It was very obvious that the pitches were not strikes. The first K of the inning was on a 3-2 count. I'm sure Cohen was enraged bc at the very least Conner's HR should have been a 3 run shot. Leaving us 1 out and a 1 run deficit. It's much different to pitch with a 2 run lead in the 9th as opposed to pitching with only a 1 run lead especially after you just had a bomb hit off you.

edit: It was actually a 2-2 count on R. Powers and not a 3-2 count. Both K's prior to Conner's HR were on 2-2 counts as well as the last K of the inning. So facts just shot my assessment to hell

edit: We stuck out looking 8 times last night

 

[Henry Kissinger]

the point was that it looked absurdly out after it'd been much tighter in the innings before.

I think the feed is pretty ******. It may have just been the team in gray though. Its not nearly as good as M2M and the press box view is brutal. But at least its free to all. I do love how they have gametracker available right by the video.
