    Call sucked but Yuli has got to know they don't have many bench players left. Have to hold back emotions in that situation.

    Time for the Sox to pile on 4 more runs. Then Kimbrel in for the dagger.

    I've always argued against taking the human element out of baseball, to me it's what makes the game what it is. But maybe it's time, that was an absolute HORRENDOUS call, and that doesn't even take into consideration the situation at hand.

    game-tying run? Altuve running? Took absolute perfection to nail him by a hair?

    That's a risk you take every time in that situation.

    Those two throws were closer to the SZ than the Gurriel pitch, why aren't those strikes?

    Wait...the announcers are agreeing now that they were bad calls....and not blamming our fans for booing...guess it was too obvious.

    The umpire is so screwed. Did he know Yuli is a political refugee? Say hello to his little friend.

    Just throw your pitches inside. As long as you don't hit the batter, it's a strike apparently.

    If any one of the things I wrote in terms of situation weren't the case, I'd agree with you given 1 out.
