World Series GDT - Game 3

[ColinCoby]

Burrell must be looking fastball.

Looked like a ball to me too. but really the zones in pitch f/x are the official strike zone - the defacto zone is different - wider and squatter - so probably 50%+ of the time that pitch is called a ball.

My first order rule of thumb is that anything near a border has a 50% chance, or less, of being called a strike.

This is very true. I actually said to my girlfriend on the Posey walk earlier in the game that ball 4 coulda been called strike 3 and I wouldn't have been surprised. But on Fox tracker it was pretty far off the plate. Makes me wonder if they plot their pitches based on the call?


CMON Burrel! Too many K's by him this series

I really want the team to get more aggressive at the plate. Smash that early fastball, stop taking it.

I don't think so. I'm still pissed the Ishi got called out on a pitch 8" off the plate, where McCarver said "it was right there," and as fox trax showed it to be way outside.

It was one of those, "the pitcher hit the catcher between the knees, so I'm going to call it a strike" strikes.

It's really what the Padres live on, and yes, it really ticks me off.

Ya I remember that.... McCarver is absolutely terrible. Brings nothing to the table. Not a big fan of Buck, but I feel bad for him

See, this Molina guy, everytime...

 

[titsmcgee1987]

Molina is in Sanchez's head

 

[calsnowskier]

One thing I miss about Bengie...

The INSANE OBP...

 

[ColinCoby]

At least Sanchez is keeping the Giants in the game huh?

 

[ColinCoby]

I'm starting to believe you.

 

[SFGRTB]

Agreed. Sanchez is so freakin weak-minded/immature/whatever you want to call it.

 

[filosofy29]

Let's go boys, you gotta believe. Let's score some fecking runs!!!

 

[sfsportsfan]

How the FUCK do you walk the unwalkable twice?

 

[titsmcgee1987]

I don't get it

 

[SFGRTB]

[SFAnthem]

whats up my nerds!

I called it a weekend for work and caught a few innings, grabbing some lunch (Wingstop!)

just get caught up..man, I do not know that park at all! a few flyouts, I thought were bombs and the Homer, I thought was double at best. Is it me, or does it play small?

Get back in the game, boys! Just need to take 1 out of 3 in Texas..but I wouldn't mind 2

Me too. Good call. Let's go Giants.

 

[filosofy29]

All of the Giants hard hits are to dead center. Cmon boys, think singles and walks. Let's roll!!!

Oh, btw. I still believe in the Durty one
