I guess that ump is on the HOU payroll.

Turner losing his fucking mind right now. Dumb fucking cal imho. Way to make this game about the umpiring.

such a play is sposed to be nonreviewable, but they should do the right thing

This is the longest replay review ever.

NoTimeBeforeTime, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:51 (four years ago) link

I'm glad they are looking at it. Too important

The bag is in fair territory. What else can Turner do? The throw was late and inside. I’d say safe.

I guess I see why he was called out. Not as egregious as I first thought. Still not sure it was the right call...

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:53 (four years ago) link

I think it was the right call, unfortunately. Turner wasn't in the running lane at all; Guriel had no chance to catch it.

But who cares now!

clemenza, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:53 (four years ago) link

lol the immediate cut to Turner

frogbs, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:53 (four years ago) link

FUCK YEAHHHHHHHHHHH

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:54 (four years ago) link

Ha ha good on Rendon for putting this away. If the Astros eeked out two runs, we’d be hearing about this call forever.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:54 (four years ago) link

“Putting this away”= making something of the inning.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:55 (four years ago) link

I will say many bad words if Scherzer's out there on the mound.

clemenza, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:56 (four years ago) link

The baseball gods made it right

Bee OK, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:56 (four years ago) link

Scherzer gambit aborted I think

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:57 (four years ago) link

Martinez has to control his emotions there. Can't lose it like that.

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:59 (four years ago) link

Can't believe how livid Martinez was mid-inning in light of the HR.

clemenza, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 02:59 (four years ago) link

the specifics of the discussion might've inflamed him

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:06 (four years ago) link

I was worried he was going to choke slam the ump he was being so aggressive.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:06 (four years ago) link

Xpost - you mean him not being able to play under protest?

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:07 (four years ago) link

(Apparently)

The answer to every ejection trivia question is Bobby Cox. https://t.co/TsRqNdYPMH

Joe Torre was on the field conferring with an umpire in his executive capacity

Turner wasn't in the running lane at all; Guriel had no chance to catch it.

Hmmmm? Turner played no factor in the noncatch that I saw; Gurriel missed it before it hit Turner.

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:16 (four years ago) link

More Strasburg!

This would be his Matt Harvey moment, if it's happening.

NoTimeBeforeTime, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:18 (four years ago) link

wtf my stream froze and he's out of the 8th already? damn

frogbs, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:20 (four years ago) link

as Dan Shulman points out, the running lane is a bad rule anyway

that was a quick 8th!

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:21 (four years ago) link

I guess not (unless he's back for the ninth, which could happen).

NoTimeBeforeTime, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:21 (four years ago) link

No one will agree, but I'd give him one baserunner. He's not pitching tomorrow, he's at 101 pitches, he's a free agent anyway, let him go out.

Bad rules are still rules.

clemenza, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:22 (four years ago) link

I will agree

timellison, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:22 (four years ago) link

I have no idea how he does after that many pitches but yeah I'd let him go until someone gets on

frogbs, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:23 (four years ago) link

Stras has been looking better and better as this game goes on.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:24 (four years ago) link

Devenski pitching the ninth means that Hinch is already trying to save his best guys for Game 7.

NoTimeBeforeTime, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:25 (four years ago) link

He's got Gurriel, Alvarez, Correa

timellison, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:25 (four years ago) link

I didn’t even think he’d pull off four, the way he started the game.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:26 (four years ago) link

Looks like Strasburg was headed to the showers?

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:28 (four years ago) link

as a Mets fan, i'm glad they didn't call it on JC Martin in '69

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:29 (four years ago) link

xp: maybe he had to take a leak, looks like he's back in the dugout.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:30 (four years ago) link

Only 5 pitches in the 8th, they said.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:31 (four years ago) link

weeeew

frogbs, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:32 (four years ago) link

and we will see you to-morrow night

(I think)

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:33 (four years ago) link

That's what happens when you let the seventh best guy in the bullpen pitch the ninth in a close game.

Two more two out runs for the Nats!

NoTimeBeforeTime, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:33 (four years ago) link

Wow great game

Bee OK, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:33 (four years ago) link

Please don't needlessly burn a pitcher with a 5-run lead.

clemenza, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:34 (four years ago) link

Good move

Bee OK, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:37 (four years ago) link

No

Bee OK, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:37 (four years ago) link

Utterly ridiculous.

Ben Clemens
11:37 Greinke looks like he just found out the World Series was going on and had to get out of bed to watch.

a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:38 (four years ago) link

why

frogbs, Wednesday, 30 October 2019 03:38 (four years ago) link

104 and no one on. They should have let him go
