After looking at the pitch f/x charts, West missed at least 15 calls today. Some of them were blatantly obvious too. And that's only looking at our pitchers' charts.

Jason Kendall always kills us. Advanced scouting? The guy has a .620 OPS for f***ing sakes.

Wow.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 04:09 PM) Didn't Hawk used to say that you can't blame the umpires for losing games? I know there is history with West, but I wish he would give it a rest. Hawk is a contradictory old man.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 04:08 PM) Cooper and his "master plan" with our rotation...don't get me started. Kinda like trying to pitch Carlos Torres in game 2 of the double header in Detroit because he didn't want Jackson to pitch against the Twins.

QUOTE (soxfan3530 @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 04:07 PM) omg that wasnt a strike??? It's Joe West. He's bad at his job.

Linebrink in, this'll be over soon.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 03:49 PM) Jenks for starter? He used to be one. But with his body type and his lack of consistency, no way. What a play by Beckham!

Jenks still bringing the velocity.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 03:47 PM) I love that move. Legitimately. Let's hope he does pitch in this game.

EJax warming.

The DH f***ed our bullpen over.

Jenks is out there again? This won't end well.

That was our chance.

That wasn't even close. Looked good off the bat, but Gordon barely moved.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 03:13 PM) So what do people think of Frank in the booth? Agrees with Hawk too much.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 02:53 PM) His style of play is likeable. His grindiness? haha.

Good effort by Danks.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 02:43 PM) You don't live here. The fans love Getz and it's kind of addicting. Just because Royals fans love him doesn't mean you should.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 02:31 PM) The Royals announcers are ripping this crew now. Hilarious. I may get ripped for this, but I might rather have Getz than Teahen on my team. I'll take Getz over Teahen when he starts getting on base more.

lol they're just chewing all these umpires out like no tomorrow.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 02:26 PM) Was it a hit and run? Nope.

This is just getting ridiculous. Why are you stealing with Kotsay and Vizquel? You're making Jason Kendall look good.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 22, 2010 -> 02:00 PM) FOX Sports restrictions. They were not happy bout it either. They could have had the game at 12. Fox doesn't have rights until 3. Then they can play game 2 at 6.

Why did the Royals pick such a crappy time to have this DH? Why after a night game? Was it that hot yesterday in KC?
