Maldonaldo seriously cannot be trusted behind the plate. I think every pitch is going to get past him now.
He should too....the zone is totally one sided. Ump trying to block throw to first...might as well, pretty clear which way you are leaning tonight.
Good play by Maldy to throw out the runner. Should he have caught the ball in first place?... not sure.
This ump has missed at least 5 calls in 2 innings. And then he almost interfered with Maldy after he dropped another strike on JRod. Geez… This has been absurd so far. I cannot believe it’s only 1-0.
Astros only benefited from one strike call that was a ball . Mariners have had 5 calls gone their way.
if johnnie doesn't get thrown out with how the ump is calling ball/strike, he doesn't care. i have a feeling miller will get thrown out tho.
Honestly, two of those walks were on the ump. He's only allowed that lead off hit and he's getting punished for it.
