wtf was wrong with this, to get another -1 on the Karma. yes I realize that he has 38 straight saves and don't deserve this, but hey it's JV going for his 20th.

There are a few out there who smite people whenever they can.
I had 13 Karma like 36 hours ago, but jokes on whoever, cause I don;t give a fuck about Karma, nobody should.

Yeah. That replay of him reacting to a call saying "No. No way." was exactly what I thought at the time. My thoughts had more fucking expletives though.[color=#006400 said:KalineCountry[/color]]
Good point. JV 'was getting squeezed' by the ump and it is upsetting when a strike above the gameday k zone line at the bottom or inside either vertical line isn't called a strike. This ump was not good early on, then Verlander talked to him between innings and it improved for 1 maybe 2 more innings, and then the ump went back to a small zone.
But the main thing is with all that and how it might have affected him and the back to back homeruns, first time JV has allowed the bottom of the order hitters to do that, always 2/3/4 hitters before, Tigers got the win and he got his 20th win.
interiminequities said:Karma is useless and it seems more than likely that the more you care about it, the less people are going to be willing to vote you up. In any case, that's of little relevance to this thread.
This is the first game since the 28-Out that I've actually been upset by an ump. It seemed like Verlander wasn't getting any love on his curveball. And there were a few corner fastballs I expected to go his way as well.
Maybe I was just hyped for what I thought could be a good chance for a no-hitter or I'm just expecting Verlander to be operating under Michael Jordan rules. But it seemed like his pitch count got driven up in the early innings by phantom balls on things that could have been strikeouts and then there being a few fouls and/or a walk after the fact.
It was just altogether frustrating.
Congrats to JV regardless.
