Generally, I turn sound down, but when I have it on I sure hear what you guys complain about with Brown.

4 in a row! Get em Paul!

I didn’t catch who the home plate umpire is tonight but, according to Gameday, he’s called a few pitches strikes that were well off the plate. I sure hope he doesn’t decide the game’s outcome.

Skenes pitching, I'm watching. Be cool to sweep them. I have not seen crowd yet but imagine it will be large.

No it won't. Might hit 20,000 barring incredible walk up. I mentioned this to Doc, the new car smell is gone with Skenes. People are tired of going to see him pitch and leave with the game tied 0-0

I certainly can see that.

Lodolo is smoking us but that was a terrible call.

Had to leave for a bit, listened on radio. Block mentioned how many pitches are wide for both pitchers.

It's a freaking travesty to have this level of incompetence at the major league level. I didn't think anyone could be worse than the clowns down in Texas

Vanover strikes again. The third strike to IK-F was well off the plate.

# 6 Skenes smoking them. Couple runs be nice.

With such an enormous zone, even more frustrating Skenes pitch count is so hihg....his command still isn't there....earlier in the season, he might have struck out 12 already on about 40 pitches with this zone
