a few looked like strikes, but if you have the sny broadcast they made a good point that when the catcher sets up inside, the ump sets up inside above him - and when the pitch goes 2 feet to the right of where the catcher sets up the ump will never call a strike because of his perspective and the context, even if it is right on the corner.

I heard them say that. The problem is a)that's BS, and b) that specific pitch was right down the middle, as shown on replay.

i mean it absolutely was not right down the middle. and i dont think it's an excuse because i think they should use a 'perfect' computerized strike zone, but what they said definitely made sense for that specific pitch.

Perez did not 'dominate' in his last 2 starts. He was absolutely horrible in Game 4, the Mets scored like 8 thousand runs. Stop saying that.

Computerized Strike Zone

i love hearing the announcers talk about the '69 series.

Keith: Do people up in Milwaukee still think about 69 much?

Jerry: Well, no - I'm sure people in new york think about 69 a lot more than they do.

I'm playing poker right now, but I'm sure you have the resources available to dig up Perez's line for NLCS game 7 and the first game this year.

OMG. Clearly swung...fine. But when Willie asks the homeplate umpire to ask for some help the umpire just said no. Why can't he just ask for help when he didn't see it? I don't see the big deal of asking for help.

Needle, I think you may out do the Jaguars thread.

Go Go Oliver Perez for 2007 NL Cy Young.

Bahahah

[kbfc]

The home plate ump has been purely terrible this game. I hope to look back on this game at some later date where the Mets get the benefit of poor umping, so I can feel ok about it.

[Needle77]

TFG,

First, I hope this thread surpasses the Jags just because the Mets win the WS.

Second, Who said a Brave fan can come in here? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Third, Perez will win the 2011 Cy Young, it was clearly a mistype by me.
