when he loses his control he has terrible innings, it seems like all the damage against him is from single horrendous innings
What a joke this ump has been, every pitch an inch of the plate is a strike for matsuzaka but pettite throws a strike to Lugo and it's ball 4 giving boston a free run to cut the lead to 4-3.
They give Matsuzkaa every low and inside pitch, he struck out 3-4 guyson balls yet they can't give Andy better pitches and now the game is tied and we have to go to the pen an iningor 2 earlier thanwe should have. If you are going to call the low strike for one pitcher you need to for the other.
you're such a homer, there were tons of questionable pitches called balls for both teams, the ump has a completely incosistent Zone, hurting both pitchers
Please, he has been calling every pitch win 2 feet of the strike zone a strike for matsuzaka and the ball 4 to lugo was a better pitch han any of those questionable strikes he called for Bosto. If he was calling them both ways I'd understand it but we had to watch 3-4 ankees K on balls then on a better pitch we walk a Boston hitter which was the key to this inning.
That awful call comes back to kill us, costing us the lead and forcing us to go to the pen earlier than we should have.
Did I say anything about Joe tonight? Come on man, I actually feel bad for him. He had to get up from his nap to pull Pettitte.
