Friday 6/14 vs Philadelphia

[Moshagge3]

Adley saw the splitter in the zone like three straight times and didn't do anything with it.

It's been a strike all night. 6 outs to play with. O'Hearn, Cowser, Stowers available to pinch hit

MASN box had that as a strike.

Huh? I'm watching MASN and it was definitely outside

[oriolediehard]

If we don't hit a homer we lose. 

[Moose Milligan]

Struck out looking? Cmon Adley. 

[Moshagge3]

Props to Akin for saving the bullpen.

How can he not swing at that?  We dont have robo umps.  You have to protect the plate from old dumb guys who have a steak dinner planned in an hour.  SWING!

You can't trust these umpires on anything close the robot umpires will be exact, but until then you probably should guard the edges of the zone.

MASN doesn't fill in the circle if it's a ball. It was filled in. I'm not sure it was a strike either but Gameday has it as a strike, too.

It was a solid circle, which means strike. All it takes is for 0.1% of that ball to be in the strike zone.

[spleen1015]

He should have blown up strike one.

[Gurgi]

Probably why the Umpires Union is fighting so hard to not have robo umps.  It will cut deep into their earning potential if they cant fudge the strike zone to how their bookie wants it.  

[Malike]

Gameday showed it a strike.

That was the pitch for Adley to hit it was 91 mph and right over the plate.
