OK that 0-1 pitch to Jackson was a strike for sure

 

[Justinkm83]

Ogando pitched out of it, but he didn't look very good, no fastball command

It's not any better in this inning. He's not throwing it by anyone when it's in the zone either.

Same pitch for strike 3 was called.

 

[romeo212000]

Much better inning from ogando.

 

[jta4437]

Good strikeout pitch to Jackson there, needs more of those

 

[jta4437]

Same pitch for strike 3 was called.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing

Is it just me noticing it more or are the umpires just sucking ass in general the last couple years?

 

[romeo212000]

Nice breaking ball for the K.

Starting to spot that inside fastball to LHHs and that was a good changeup...

I'm about 3 minutes behind in my telecast... trying to catch up

Nice to see Profar making that throw from 2B

Might be making it from SS if this ends up being serious...

That was the first pitch I would consider a sure fire strike, now that I've adjusted to the camera angle

Wasnt sure if that was a change up or breaking pitch.

I'm sure they're just being cautious, but bears watching

Maybe I'm not adjusted to the camera angle yet.

The strikeout looked like a curve or slurvy slider

You weren't the only one. Which is why they've gone to a replay system.

 

[romeo212000]

If Mitch is out to start the season, does Adduci take his spot?

 

[romeo212000]

That's what I thought.

He should, but Beltre might take it so we don't lose him.

 

[jta4437]

He should, but Beltre might take it so we don't lose him.

I believe Aducci is out of options as well... so we'll probably end up losing one or both of them at some point
