Just shut up Busby

BUZZ! Just likes to hear himself talk. The Astros take a 4-3 lead over the Astros.

It's a fucking joke. Leave it to MLB to fuck up something another sport has all but perfected.

There need to have some serious conversations about this in the offseason

No kidding. And how many times does it seem if it is not clear and convincing it still goes against us. If it takes that stinking long to look at it how can it be reversed.

Bad baserunning by Beltre but that call should not have been overturned

 

[Bmurph]

not how it works Tom, don't try and make sense of it

He was probably out, but that's still true. I'm not a fan of the fact that the fielder simply keeps his glove on the base runner for several seconds in hopes that a sliver of daylight appears and they can get a call reversed on instant replay. That wasn't the intent of the replay system.

Sit down Sucré, you fat worthless sack of shit.

I seriously hate that guy. Always bluffing throws to first and trying to throw guys out who are slightly off the base like he's some sort of badass.

I don't know hwy but Lloyd McLendon really annoys me for no apparent reason.

I don't mind that, but you cannot tell witha shadow of a doubt that his leg breaks contact with the bag on the opposite side of the camera angle

He may have been out, but he was called safe, and there is no way they can say clearly he was out on the replay. Just no way

Dude whines a lot to the umps, and then the whole moving Felix's starts around to intentionally face the Rangers is both puzzling and douchey.

He annoys me because he overmanages and draws out games needlessly with his ridiculous amount of pitching changes and challenges.

 

[Bmurph]

weak, still cant do shit against this team

 

[ESPN Refugee]

Despite the bad calls and what not we've had plenty of scoring chances. Just hasn't happened.

I agree, but it's MLB so I doubt anything gets done about it. MLB is almost getting as bad as the NBA with their bull shit officiating and nonsense.

We've only got ourselves to blame. Hopefully this is a wake up call that doesn't hurt them and Oakland hopefully holds on.

It amazes me that the Spurs almost never have guys fined for flopping

 

[Justinkm83]

and...Elvis swings at ball 4. This has been a bad baseball game by everyone.

The way replay has been butchered, I hope they get rid of it for good. It is appalling they can fuck it up as bad as they have
