Default Is the home plate Umping really this bad?



Verlander threw 5 strikes and no balls before he gave up a 2-run double on a full count???

Pretty incredible. As the announcer said I only remember seeing Nolan Ryan do that.

I thought the strike zone was all over the place, and very inconsistent.

And he seems to do it so easy. His 88 mph slider is ridiculously nasty as well, especially when its down in the zone.

Default halo it's me

once saw Nolan Ryan and Frank Tanana back to back against red sox, whwn Tanana threw almost as hard as Ryan. It was a life changing experience. met Ryan and got a ball autographed. You wouldn't mess with that cat. he looks like he coukd knock you out with an open hander
