    Call me crazy...I think that was a case of Gomez being smart enough to give up the hit to avoid a collision and demolishing our best player.

    Gomez could have caught that without a dive. CF has to take command on that play.

    Gomez should have called him off... But I also appreciate him not steam rolling the team's best player over it.

    Should we have intentionally walked Trout in that situation?

    Dont think he had to dive the cf coming in should take precedence if he calls it.

    Feldman gets through the first, smooth sailing now?

    It was a long run. I know it's supposed to be his ball. But if he had any uncertainty, he probably wanted to wait a bit to call it. And by then Altuve had jumped in the mix. But yeah, maybe some fault on Gomez for not calling earlier...to me, more fault on Altuve for calling when he did

    Great location from Feldman. Should have been out of the inning earlier. More pitching like that, and play some add on and it should be a great night.

    Altuve definitely was in the wrong. I bet Gomez of 2-3 years ago makes that play no problem.

    Is it me or does Feldman take forever to make a pitch. C'mon man, can't be another 2AM night :grin:

    Did that one guy get banned?

    We pitch to Trout, he gets a hit, and no mention about his average against cutters off the plate or something?

    Seriously. I was ready to see him posting about how Trout is killing us again.

    I bet umpires are like "Son of a... Castro is hitting tonight?" I don't think Castro has had an AB in his life where he didn't like at least one of the calls.

    Catchers are usually the biggest critics, since they are watching what happens with their pitchers the whole night.
