    There goes Will again, trying to lose a game again on purpose with his lineups. Wait a second...

  • Finally someone besides Romo gets it done. More of that guys...Drew can't carry you bums forever.

    Will does a lot of great things but burning the bench too early is a bad habit he has. It's a 4-4 game in the 6th, you have a decent chance of going to extras. Stop blowing up your bench too early.

Are these umpires literally blind.

Watching live it was obvious he was safe

Need to get Newcomb out of there…Baez would be the last batter for me. He swings at everything anyways

As someone who’s umpired some HS games that short hop to first really messes up what you’re looking/listening for on that call.

So when MLB grades umpires, they basically forgive any miss that is with .75" of being correct. By that standard, home plate ump is at about 94% correct today. Average full-time ump is 96.8%, so certainly a below average game. If you give no margin for error, he's at 90.1% relative to 93.5% average. Bad game although it looks like he's been somewhat victimized by having to make a lot of relatively close calls. And it looks a little worse because his misses aren't that predictable.

He's been horrible. You're overthinking it

Good job pitching around the walk. Add some insurance.

Dammit Richards up in the pen…

We need a couple more. Will gonna bring in richards...

Richards has the 9th against the top of their order. We're so fucked unless we get some insurance runs.

Richards is apparently our Sunday closer

Where is hicks?

3 more outs

this bullpen is a nightmare man, seems like at least 75% of the time in late close situations, they can't get these dudes out without base runners, even when they're facing the bottom of the order

Bullpen has been about as good as you can hope for, especially with how many innings they've had to cover lately.

Wait, you want 3 up 3 down more often than not?

Need insurance run here....don't trust Richards in the 9th.

One of the dumbest things we've been doing.

It's nice not having to make every decision perfect.

Definitely gonna need another run here or we might be in for a rough bottom of the 9th

I know Hicks threw 21 pitches yesterday but this is a division game….would be nice if he could be able to go in back to back games

The only other plausibly available relievers I think are Hicks and Fedde. And I think Hicks may not really be available.

No you don't understand. Venable should be fired TODAY.

I'd much rather let Newcomb try to close it than let Richards try.
