So I got royally screwed over yesterday in MLB The Show... Base runner on first steals, guy at the plate swings and misses, but his momentum carries him over the plate and he literally blocks my catcher's throw to second. No interference is called, the ball rolls away and the runner goes from first to third. I've never really encountered an interference or obstruction call in the Show before, but it appears such calls don't exist...

QUOTE (Brian @ May 27, 2014 -> 06:52 AM) Pacers are just dysfunctional. Blaming refs for getting smoked. They won't win a title anytime soon. David West got a tech for complaining about a totally non-existent foul. It was hilarious and well deserved.

Have yourself a day Conor.

1-2-3 by Petricka.

Nice play by Marcus.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 26, 2014 -> 03:40 PM) But it was the catcher who was battling, forget his name. In hindsight I was probably wrong; shoulda bunted. Nieto looked like he was going to bunt on the 0-1.

So I guess Sierra's bad at defense right?

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 26, 2014 -> 03:18 PM) I am not ready to give up on Downs he has been very good for a long time. He's also very old now.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ May 26, 2014 -> 03:12 PM) He's poor on defense and a bad baserunner. He hasn't played poorly on defense this year. At least UZR doesn't think so (small sample I know) and he has made a couple of nice plays (I was there for the diving catch in Houston).

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 26, 2014 -> 03:11 PM) Did he softly touch him on the slide for the out and then went for the knee? It looked like he might have brushed the jersey initially. That's probably what made the replay inconclusive.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ May 26, 2014 -> 03:11 PM) This replay stuff sucks. Do away with it please. lmao wow. I guess it wasn't "conclusive" enough...

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 26, 2014 -> 03:10 PM) Too bad Sierra can't hit. Not many guys can make it close there. What an arm. He's hitting .297 with the Sox. He was just terrible with the Blue Jays early in the year.

Semien...smh.

And Donovan scores 3 goals today in an MLS game.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 25, 2014 -> 10:29 PM) They also benched Sefolosha for Jackson. The more he and Adams play (just say no to Fisher and Perkins) the better chance they have of a '12 repeat. Adams should definitely be starting over Perkins.

OKC vs. SA isn't over yet. Ibaka made a big difference for OKC tonight.

Dave Martinez is still available for hire. I, along with many others, thought he should have been hired in 2012 instead of Robin.

This. coaching. staff. is. terrible.

Can't believe Gordon looked at that pitch...

QUOTE (fathom @ May 24, 2014 -> 04:04 PM) Viciedo has NO CHANCE of doing anything here. Just realized Sierra is on deck.

Get on Gordon, I like the odds of Viciedo and Dunn getting something done.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ May 24, 2014 -> 04:02 PM) RHB are hitting .240 off Robertson this season, 86 OPS+ LHB are hitting .083 with a 3 OPS+ LETS STACK THE BOX WITH LEFTIES It's actually .095 now after Dunn's homer yesterday, but yeah.

Does this coaching staff not know how to read a f***ing scouting report? Robertson dominates lefties. It's been that way his entire career.

I'm not sure how Alejandro is this bad. After starting off hot against the Twins, he's been absolute garbage.

I think we're trying to lose on purpose...
