Argh. Miranda. 

[Parfigliano]

Probably to much to ask for...never mind

[CoastiePilot08]

Gross. Letting them hang around.

Funny thing happened on the way to the route.

KC's manager didn't throw in the towel down 5 after 4.

Hopefully Jorge Lopez in the 8th and Duran for the 9th

Duran is out today. Some immigration issue. 

[jmlease1]

Disappointing start for Lopez tonight. He looked solid early but surrendering 6 earned to KC is kind of dire at home. Polanco hit a great bomb at the plate, but has been a bomb in the field tonight. Tough night for the defense which has been pretty good so far this season. If the bullpen can't lock this down this game will be a bit infuriating.

Immigration law is some tricky s#it

Pretty sure the brain cramp was on the SS…nobody was covering 2nd. I wouldn’t think Taylor would attempt that if he or the base coach didn’t see that the base was uncovered. Could be wrong since I’ve only seen the replay as well.

Perez had the ball, turned toward home plate and started walking to his position. Without calling time out.

[jkcarew]

Situation screemed SB attempt by Buxton there.

So, never.

[rwilfong86]

If they lose this game it will really suck

Good grief, please shut these idiots down. But this is baseball, and even garbage teams win 40 games from somewhere. Would hate to be one of them after building this lead!

[h2oface]

Vazquez loves to call the off speed stuff.

[Nine of twelve]

Thielbar, bear down and get this guy.

5 curves in a row called to Isbel. The only strike was a miscalled ball.

[CoastiePilot08]

Pull him now. 

[rwilfong86]

Bring Lopez in now!!

[jkcarew]

Rather than bring Lopez in for 4 outs…has Theilbar put the tying run on base. These are the head scratchers with Rocco IMO.

[rwilfong86]

This is getting ridiculous

[PDX Twin]

Perez now bats one more time.

No joke. Terrible. 

[h2oface]

11 off speed in a row

[CoastiePilot08]

Got lucky AF there. Wow. 

[rwilfong86]

Terrible 3rd strike call... but thanks hahaa

[h2oface]

And a called K on a plenty low fastball finally. This ump is horrible.

[Nine of twelve]

Sometimes when the umpire screws up big time it benefits our team big time.

Edit: this is bad for baseball. Robo umps now.

[PDX Twin]

That has to be the worst inning of ball/strike calls I've ever seen. I remember at least 4 balls called strikes against KC.

ROBO UMPS NOW!!!
