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

This is the longest replay review ever.

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.— Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) October 30, 2019

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!

lol the immediate cut to Turner

FUCK YEAHHHHHHHHHHH

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

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

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

Scherzer gambit aborted I think

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

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

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

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

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.

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).

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?

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

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.

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!

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

That was possibly/probably Strasburg's last game with the Nationals. I know all about Matt Harvey...Does this sport have even an ounce of poetry left in it?
