7-21: Miami Rainbows (Koehler) at Braves (Teheran) - Retorno del Oso

[Heyward]

BJ with the game on the line.

Onto extras.

Sadly right again, just got under it.

Although he should of took the pitch on 3-1.

 

[CyYoung31]

This ump blows.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

This ump blows.

He was fine for the majority of the night. Now all of a sudden he's changed what is a strike and a ball.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Freaking A. Come on Simmons

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Strike zone is about the size of a needle

 

[Dalyn]

Need the lefty in here.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

And back to second place we go.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Looks like the ump cost us this game.

 

[jsebe10]

Worst umpiring behind the plate I've seen in a while.

 

[Braves1976]

That was another missed call, strike three!
Of course it leads to two runs too...

 

[Dalyn]

Unbelievable. You don't pitch Simmons (while he is struggling and has no room for error) against someone with Garrett's splits.

 

[CyYoung31]

Should have gone with Shrieve vs Jones. Instead, we continue to abuse Simmons and Varvaro.

 

[jsebe10]

This offense needs to be fckn embarrassed. Pathetic showing tonight.

 

[AerchAngel]

Conspiracy, umps were told when Nats are up and Braves are down, call it tight.

 

[Dalyn]

Should have gone with Shrieve vs Jones. Instead, we continue to abuse Simmons and Varvaro.

Yep. Called for it before the terrible (easy to predict) result.

 

[Braves1976]

Should have gone with Shrieve vs Jones. Instead, we continue to abuse Simmons and Varvaro.

Agreed. Plus I'd started him this inning with two lefties to start it.

Maybe this joke of an offense should score more than 1 run against weak pitching.

 

[Heyward]

Unbelievable. You don't pitch Simmons (while he is struggling and has no room for error) against someone with Garrett's splits.

While true, the offense scored one freaking run.

Not gonna win very many ball-games like that, although i woulda gone to the lefty vs Jones not that it woulda mattered even though it looked like Simmons was squeezed.

 

[Lville21]

Simmons going through a rough patch due to being overused. He has given up 5 runs in his last 2.1 innings.

 

[Heyward]

Maybe this joke of an offense should score more than 1 run against weak pitching.

Glad someone gets it.

Woulda gone with the lefty but one run isnt gonna cut it since they had many chances to win the game.
