Anyone know the percentage of challenged calls which are being overturned?

I've been a staunch believer the umpires get the vast majority of the calls correct, yet it's surprising to me how many I'm seeing being reversed.

Confirms what I've thought for a while. The nice thing is, it's really cut down on the BS of umpire egos and coaches and players getting tossed for bull shit reasons.

Wonder if they will be graded on their merits?

And I'm still wondering about the percentages.

Beltre turned a rather routine out into a long, semi exciting one.

I'm an hour behind. Thought Ohio was Central time Zone. Shows you I don't know my geography.

Shoddy fielding tonight. But what we really expected from Williams.

He's already pitched his one good game for us.

he needs to finish the inning and let Klein start the next inning
This inning alone will be about 2 hours if you let him finish this inning.

Did we really wait until Williams got the bases full before we put a call into the pen? Don't get that. Hell, they had 10 hits - now 13. Plus, 3 walks.

I was giving him too much credit, thinking he actually COULD finish the inning
