Sam f'in Holbrook. Dude .that was 7 inches of the plate and 3 inches off the dirt. Hinch should have done more, kicked some dirt on the plate to get tossed too. I hope Colbt said something good.
Bad calls are going to happen from time to time, but it really irks me when an umpire takes offense when a player calls him out on an obviously terrible call. Rasmus had every right to be frustrated with that call, and Holbrook should have been the bigger man there and let it go. I'm all for refs and umpires controlling the game, and keeping things in check, but he messed up there and he knew it. Just terrible.
Still didn't justify the toss. Ump you blew the call. Didn't even make a decisive call. To add insult to injury you toss the player when you were in the wrong.
I'm hoping there's a better option or that they go with Singleton. If they want to remove Carter from the 40 now, they should've done it a month ago and I'll be pissed
Today McHugh is McGreat The 6 starters for the Astros are doing great, it has to be the strongest position in our team.
