I can't believe how bad the umpiring is in MLB. I watched the end of the Rays-Red Sox game today... unbelievable. Strike three:

Yeah you're right I saw that too. Ross had every right to be as mad as he was. That was a piss poor example of calling strikes and balls. Absolutely ridiculous.

[MisSigsFan]

I just watched the highlight. It looks like he signaled "dead ball" all the way until the third runner was thrown out. WTF?

I know. I really hope we protested that.

[MisSigsFan]

You should've seen the Padres game yesterday. This pales in comparison.

R.I.P. Baseball.

::Sigh:: I actually miss this guy more than I thought I would. Especially now with the pathetic offense we've been trotting out in our lineup for the past couple of weeks. Defensive liability, sure, but when he crushes the ball, he really crushes the ball.

[PhillyDee]

The baseball fan in me really hates it when things like this happen, but the Phillies fan in me (hence my irrational hatred for Cody F*cking Ross) is secretly loving that. lol

[PhillyDee]

Holy crap, Hunter Pence just murdered a baseball out in SF. Oh, and I really, really wish we had announcers as great as the Giants broadcasting crew. Wheels and McCarthy are so freaking annoying. Makes me miss the crap out of Harry

[strategix]

Matt Cain has allowed 4 base runners (3 hits, 1 walk) and no runs in his last 18 innings... Not bad huh?

[PhillyDee]

Wow. Curtis Granderson went on a freakin' tear last night. Guy's a beast!

[Menni]

If anyone is on a tear it' Matt freaking Kemp...lol.

[MechanicalMan]

Daniel Descalso hit his second career home run tonight, making him the ninth Cardinal to hit a home run before Albert Pujols this year.

The 21st perfect game in history by Philip Humber of the White Sox

[PhillyDee]

Man, I was so pissed off at FOX yesterday for making me watch the Red Sox/Yankees game instead of Phil Humber's perfecto. Yeah, I get it. I'm in the NY/BOS market, they have a "rivalry" that goes back 100 years...freaking YAWN, already! Maybe if FOX & ESPN didn't shove it down our freaking throats every three seconds, I'd care, but at this point? I really couldn't care f*cking less about it.

At least they showed the bottom of the 9th, though. I wish I'd seen the whole thing, but by the time stupid FOX even mentioned he had a perfecto going it was already the 8th inning and I wasn't anywhere near a computer where I could have watched the game on someone else's stream, if there even was one. I saw a graph last night that showed the markets for both games and it's pretty damn pathetic how much coverage that Red Sox/Yankees game got by comparison. Here it is: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3756772/damnitrupert.jpg .

/rant (lol, sorry about that, guys but I know I'm not the only person who feels this way, right?)

Guy is a freaking MONSTER. x 100000000

I know how you feel, man. I don't even live in the BOS/NYY area and they still made me watch it. I live about three hours away from Chicago. I was so pissed I didn't get to watch that perfect game.

[DodgerDixon]

F*ck Cody Ross!

[Morglkorg]

Yet another game decided by a bad umpire call in Detroit. Those are starting to become a dime a dozen.
