Two games, two ridiculous squeeze jobs. These umpires are KILLING me.

also killing me: Werth’s gall in bitching and moaning about a called strike three that wasn’t even CLOSE to being a ball.

He used a lighter bat last night. Don’t know if he’s using it tonight.
I DON'T BELIEVE YOU
I tweet (more often than I blarg).
well he could go even lighter
He was swinging the heaviest bat even before going heavier in the playoffs
he should swing the same bat
he was swinging when he was one of the most valuable players in MLB.

The first inning would have just been two walks,one which was really close. But two more batters got to bat, including another walk that shouldn’t have been.
In other words, Sanchez got the benefit of some bad luck. If the play is made, it is two outs, man on 2nd, Howard up.

I haven’t seen all his starts in his great streak lately, but his last couple of starts, at least, he looked nothing like this. Until strike three to Werth, his slider wasn’t working, and he’s been missing up. He’s already walked 2 more guys than he did against Atlanta, iirc.

This game reminds me a bit of the last Atlanta game. Maybe the Giants can get to Oswalt mid innings like they did Lowe.
"And on the 11th day, the Lord said unto thee, Be Giant"
Strike zone complaints are legitimate, but Oswalt is also pitching very well. This ain’t looking good.
Golden State Worriers: Angst & Analysis
Oswalt wouldn’t be pitching nearly as well if he wasn’t getting the huge zone.
In the end, America will be remembered for three things: the Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
Yes, his pitch count is extra low because of a big zone. That doesn’t mean he hasn’t been executing. How many calls has he gotten — four, maybe five? And how many times has he been in count trouble against a batter?
Let’s not overstate the case. He’s cruising… umpiring is helping him, but it’s not nearly the biggest reason why.
Golden State Worriers: Angst & Analysis
He hasn’t been executing! He’s missing the actual strike zone and is being rewarded for it. It’s way different pitching in a 1-2 count as opposed to 2-1.
In the end, America will be remembered for three things: the Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
I’ll repeat: how many calls he has gotten?
Golden State Worriers: Angst & Analysis
It’s not the volume of calls, it’s how the fact that any pitches out of the zone are being called strikes. It gives the pitcher the freedom to stay out of the zone and forces the hitter to really expand his zone.
In the end, America will be remembered for three things: the Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
Yes, I understand that principle on a theoretical level. But I don’t see that effect as having had any real significance in this game. Can you point to an at-bat where a Giant has expanded his zone? I haven’t seen one yet.
Golden State Worriers: Angst & Analysis
1-2 pitch to Freddy last AB
Wasn’t even close to the strike zone. Other side of the plate, yes, but still.
In the end, America will be remembered for three things: the Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
Eh… I don’t think Freddy’s swing there was a conscious reaction to the umpiring, but I can’t prove it. You may be it.
Nevertheless, what’s the upshot of that? You’re saying that instead of allowing zero hits and one walk, Oswalt should have allowed one hit and two walks by now? And you’re contending that that’s not “executing”?
I don’t see it. Oswalt’s gotten some help; he’s also pitching well. Both things can be true.
Golden State Worriers: Angst & Analysis
I guess we’ll just have to disagree on this, then.

I don’t talk about it a whole lot, but I’ve battled depression since I was 18. And some of it was likely triggered by the factors you mention. In the most recent wave, I denied there was a problem until it started negatively impacting my on-air performance and I was asked to take some time away from work. I started seeing a therapist, which helped me dramatically. I can’t stress enough how important it is not to deal with the problem alone. I’ll try to provide whatever support I can.

Good evening.
Your friendly Giants/Cardinals fan checking in, from the heart of Phillies country. My town is awash in Red and White, so I decided to have some fun today, walking down main street with my Giants cap on.
I’m a bit surprised I’m alive, despite the attempts of some vehicles that went roaring past, swerving slightly in my direction as they stuck their rapidly reddening, spittle producing faces out the window to scream obscenities at me.
Regardless, I’m home, with a six-pack of ice cold beer in front of me, with my feet propped up, watching the game. There appears to be a game of great significance going on, hopefully that stops in short order.
Go Giants, and happy viewing (with hopefully a side of no torture) to all.
Goddammit, Burrell.
