Tigers vs. angels 8-27-16 Game 129

[twentythree]

Called strike 3 on Mike Trout, with 2 on base. end of inning. Nice. Trout's the sort of person who could hit a 3 run home run.

I have seen no questionable calls given to Fulmer.

I saw a few....but like I said...he as been so wild that there weren't many chances to get the calls.

 

[Rebbiv]

From the gameday and twitter I see that strike two to Miggy was off the corner and was a ball.
I don't know what happened with Victor for getting thrown out....
sounds like home plate ump Mike Everitt is being his usual assholish self.

It started with McCann getting called 3rd strike on a pitch that was very questionable. McCann was jawing some as well.

OK so that just might be what Victor went off on. He had seen enough.
Wish I could watch, no FS1.

Oberholtzer has/had been even wilder. So what is your point? It is OK Fulmer isn't getting the calls because he is wild?

The announcer said that McCann needs to be careful...being the catcher.

BTW...McCann was right...that was a little low.

no way! Fulmer has been much wilder than Oberholtzer. Fulmer's balls are 12" off the plate and he has been missing his target as well.

That second pitch to Kinsler is way outside. The ump is just being a kunt.

 

[kalinecountry]

Joyner and Ausmus have now been ejected.
Home plate ump Everitt is trolling the Tigers.

 

[Rebbiv]

Ausmus and Joyner tossed. Called strike 3 on Kinsler was way low. If this isn't one-sided umpiring, then I don't what else you would call it. It certainly isn't consistent for both teams.

 

[lonesometiger]

Yea calling strikes too low at times.

Check post four of this thread, I posted that they announced themselves as the broadcast team of fuckhead and ass face.

At this point you might as well just send a bull pen scrub out there to just punch the ump in the face.

 

[kalinecountry]

Now JD Martinez is thrown out!!

WTF kind of game calling is this?
MLB looks at games like this and the balls and strikes of the ump.
Everitt should be held responsible for throwing out this many players coach and manager for his f'n incompetence.

 

[tomdalton22]

Now JD gets tossed. This team has lost it!

 

[tinselwolverine]

Got to protect the plate with two strikes.

 

[Rebbiv]

Tom Verducci and Justin Kutcher are the announcers. Verducci is worse than Rod Allen to listen to.

 

[tomdalton22]

Got to protect the plate with two strikes.

That pitch was right at the knees...borderline but could go either way. With the way he has been calling the game you have to protect the plate. Then to get tossed when the ball was at the knees...dumb.

That said...unless he insulted him directly...he didn't deserve to get tossed. He barely said a word. My guess is he said something that is an "auto ejection".
