2019-05-01: Rockies (Senzatela) at Brewers (Anderson) [Brewers lose, 11-4 -- Anderson scratched, bullpen struggles mightily]

[TJseven7]

Ha pissed that pitch was a ball... it was closer than pitch 2 vs Braun... a strike.

 

BS ball 4. This guys awful.

[82brewcrew82]

ooof, make up call there.

[jason21nl]

Stay hot blue

Classic terrible 3-0 called strike against Cain.

[brooks_quichenick]

Makeup call on 3-0 lol.

[SRB]

Love it when umpire incompetence (potentially) decides an entire game...

[Montezuma]

lost opportunity... Have to take advantage of a pitcher that is struggling. Braun and Lo did not get it done. Disappointing

[RobDeer 45]

Wow that really made me mad. Horrible horrible call on 3-0. Awesome.

What was there to makeup though? The call Senzatela and Butera were complaining about was a good call.

[wildcat83]

Should be a tie game, robotic strike zone can’t get here soon enough

[trwi7]

Nothing better than an umpire who has a garbage strike zone (both ways) who is also hyper sensitive and a total dick about it.

Machines please. They can still stand back there and pretend they are making the call though. That way they can keep getting drilled with foul tips.

[jason21nl]

Can someone tell me Cain’s average velocity of hit balls? Seems like he makes a ton of soft contact.

 

Also how many pitches does he see per AB? Always seems like he’s deep in the count

I'm ready for the usual IL trip. Let's see what Taylor can do.

It would’ve been a 3-1 count with a robotic zone anyways. Just would’ve been a 1-1 count instead of 3-0.

Senzatela had at least somewhat of a gripe on that no call. That was pretty close compared to that 3-0 strike call.

It was like putting an old bookcase on Craigslist.

Think they have the wrong stats up for Burnes lol.

True but Braun woulda been 3-0 the AB before.

Yeah I was questioning reality there for a second.

[pacopete4]

Both Cain and Braun got shorted in their AB’s. Ump is all over the place.

86.3. MLB average is 87.4.

[TJseven7]

FBs a tick up. Slider sinker a tick down. That's last years velos.

Also, his Hard Hit % was actually above league average last year, but is a little below league average so far this season.
