Why did Bochy call a squeeze with no outs and a runner on third anyway?
A squeeze can’t be that high percentage of a play. A lot of things have to go right. It’s easy for the runner on third to end up being out.
And Bumgarner is a good-hitting pitcher.
Ugh.
There was one out.

how many errors have the Indians committed this season so far?
I would like to know why they are playing like this. Good thing my dad does not watch this game live, because if he did, he would be frustrated to see the Indians making costly mistakes.

They aren't used to having to look over there
Not an excuse, but obviously having a 3B ump would have fixed it.
The umpire
has to come out from behind the catcher and look.
The catcher’s looking down the line the umpire is to the side.
These are very tough calls to make but I think the lack of having to make them by a MLB HPU led to this.
The replay showed the umpire was positioned in front of Stewart. The only reason I noticed was because he (Stewart) was standing behind the umpire, jumping up and down yelling “WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU LOOKING AT BLUE?!!? YOU MISSED THAT CALL! ARE YOU BLIND, MAN??!”

It bounced fair first, then drifted left. It looked like a part of the ball might have passed over the corner of the bag. Definitely a VERY VERY VERY close play and not obviously foul.

They were making a jab at the Dodgers like saying the crowd is better because they don’t leave and pay attention.

I don’t get why certain people on the internet are so obsessed with telling other people that they were wrong about something.

It depends though
If that person is wrong because they are misinformed, that is understandable. If the statement is ludicrous, it is necessary at times to point out how stupid that something is. I would want people to tell me if I was wrong and or stupid haha.

Unless you’re the Braves, their bullpen is better than yours. That would seem to give them the edge.

I live my life in a very repressed fashion, because I do not want to contribute to the behavior that I myself condemn. Every now and then, all that repression explodes, and I envision murdering many people as painfully as possible, so they regret all the things they have done. This pretend time helps me let off steam.
Pease was never an option.
I usually just yell at people on the freeway on the way home. If there’s anything I can do to make you feel better, just holler.

Living in a rural area has many attractions, but availability of true high-speed wireless internet is not one of them (I say “true” because our service is supposed to be such, but isn’t; speed tests at 3 am Sunday morning, when there should be no other traffic on the local leg, were 0.15 Mbps download).
