Stop blaming the ump. Kluber is making the cubs hitters look silly thus far.

Apparently the only place Lester gets strikes called is right down the middle. Wonder if different pitchers pitches look off coming in. I don't believe in any conspiracy theories, or even a home field call, but there's been a big difference in calls both in the LCS and so far tonight.

Sort of off topic, but I'd like to murder the guy with the "Bartman for president" sign behind home plate.

Their is zero reason for a human to call balls and strikes period. It is done for "drama" and "tradition"....but really it is done for vegas.

Dear God, you're either trolling hard or bag of hammers dumb. Either way STFU.

There is an Indians poster with the name miyagi on their board

That's true, I do like the tradition part, but damn, be somewhere close to consistent.

They really need to lay off the guy. Especially Frank Kaminsky

Ugh, what?

Yeah he is a good pitcher but he's getting calls he shouldn't too.

agreed, bunch of pussies here blaming the ump, instead of Lester who couldn't find the plate to save his life and the hitters who keep watching strike 3 right down the pipe.

In the first inning we had two guys who should have been on base because of balls that were called strike 3. But I guess that's just pussy talk.

Several batters started toward sugout before the call, so they had no beef. Strike 3 to Bryant was bad call, and first strike to Cogs. But mostly Kluber.

But one thing I dont care to see against a guy with a good hook is an ump who figures if it cones back toward the plate, it is a strike automatically.

Ok Addie. Start us.

In 2008, everything was goats and Bartman. But that is ancient history now.
