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

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?
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.
