It's not really bitching about the officiating. It's that they have a system in place to make sure the officiating gets the call right, something is obvious on video and you still don't get the call. Way way different than arguing about a pass interference call.

No guarantee the Royals still win, but the game should have been 5-5 going into the 8th. Anybody's game.

**** off, knuckle dragger.

Unless that PI call was obvious.

I honestly think that loss is what we need. We weren't going 13-0. My MOJO was only going so far and it's time for someone else to start our next run. These guys will see just how close they were, and our starting pitching favors theirs for the rest of the series.

Yeah we lost. But it was a hell of a game and I won't be surprised if we take the next 3. I expect beautiful baseball to be played in raytown on Wednesday and Thursday and I'm looking forward to enjoying both in person. LFG

It’s all right. Who knows how it would’ve gone if the game stayed tied.

Ragans will lock them down, and then it’s two in KC.

Please don't respond to this asshole....he'll just use you after.

I don't have an issue with the call at second. But the strike zone was horseshit both ways.

It's bitter to lose when it feels like you were screwed out of it.

But this is the right attitude. Wacha versus Cole was supposed to be an easy W for the Yanks. It was anything but.

Correct.

The game was decided by one run. The obvious bad call helped create that final run for the winning team.

The other team is trying too. No one is playing against the refs/umps/officials and making their job harder to do. It was the wrong call and the system should’ve corrected it.

What??? The winning run was gifted as the video showed him clearly out.

I would be saying that in defeat also. That is, if I had cursed the game the night before by penning a premature GDT. :fire:

From what they showed on TV, to me it looked like there could have been a possibility that he was grazing the bag while tagged, with dirt impeding the view.

I don’t have an issue with the original call on the field.

I have an issue when they review it, have video evidence to see it clearly, and STILL make the wrong ****ing call.


Reminded me of the foul ball home run in Kauffman earlier this season. IYKYK.

Fair

It’s Jazz’s fault. Ugly ****ing slide.

Your as bad at starting GDT's as you are on being ****ing stupid when it comes to that call...

As a Yankees fan, I thought he was out.

:(

:(

I get what you guys are saying (there is spacing) but can you see his cleat?

It's a new game Monday, just kick their ****ing ass then.

Even if that’s the case (which it’s not) he came off the bag on the pop up slide while the glove was still on him.

He was actually tagged out twice. They could have (and should have) called either one. You had two ****ing outs to pick from!

If that’s the best the Yankees have, the Royals will take the series. No harm in losing game 1 on the road, even if it should have been tied int the 9th.

The bad news is we have to win 3 of 4 but the good news is we have Ragans and Lugo in 3 of those 4 games.

Yep, that was pure bullshit. The winning run would not have scored if they get that call right that was obvious in the replay.

Lots of Yankee fans were made happy. :cuss:

As one of the millions of people who watched the replay, he was out. Until he wasn’t…. SCREWJOB.

They really should pay three dorks in Indonesia to do replay. Fair and impartial my ass. When your system to correct something is broken, what’s the ****ing point?

Could have been out, but in reality, don’t walk so many Yankees all night and that call is irrelevant.

Good ole Baghdad Bob/ There's nothing to see here, everything's fine!

The guy who should be the AL MVP threw up a donut.

But ignore that. Rigged.

That was only the second time we've scored 5 or more runs since September 16. And we did it on the road, in the playoffs against the mighty Yankees.

We'll be fine.

Oh, and the zero accountability part might be my favorite thing about the whole scam. Can't protest, can't do jack shit. You just sit back and take it up the ass. It's pathetic and embarrassing.

**** off... BWJ hit it on the screw 3 of the 5 at bats, with no hit (that's baseball), and was called out on a low strike or would have walked on his last one.

Was the Yankee out at 2nd?

Seriously. Get ****ed. Can we ban this clown?

Absolutely correct, Bobby took an 0fer, and you're woefully missing the point.

When it's 1-1 and going back to KC, things will look a lot different.

He had two hits on the screws, one to the fence, and another double or triple that was robbed by judge.

Got jobbed by the 9th inning expanded strike zone too.

Bobby going 0-5 doesn’t absolve the replay officials in New York from doing their ****ing job correctly. You know, the ONLY ****ing thing they’re paid to do!

It’s okay to acknowledge the bullshit while recognizing there are other things the Royals could have done better.

The Yankees didn’t exactly play their A game either.

Three Yanks were hitless. This wasn’t their best.

:clap:

A big part of that was our pitching getting squeezed. Our pitching did about as well as they could against that lineup under the circumstances. They kept it as close as they could.

That's the way I look at it. Needed one of the first two. Get them Monday

That run flipped the game from 50/50 to 20/80. 1:1 to 1:4. It's a pretty ****ing big deal. Two out go ahead run that shouldn't have been and enabled the Yankees to go to their setup/closer with six outs to go. On a play that was reviewed with all the angles and all the slow-mo. The impact on the game was brutal. "Just play better" rings pretty damn hollow when two teams are playing on thin margins in a best of 5.

It was fun guys.

I love Bobby Witt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LMAO

Chill

Hosmer is still pissed.

Sure looks out.

It’s best of 5 this round

Pretty sure he meant we have to now win 3 of the next 4 to move on ya ****ing moron.

Royals blew this game. They pitched and challenged judge and Soto and walk wells and volpe? Wtf was that strategy?

He was safe at second base, so what? Was it a key play? Yes. But the walks to wells and volpe were inexcusable. And the Yankees scored runs without the long ball, which is unusual.

Juri is a renowned yankee killer. Play that dude every game.

Just keep in mind, the Yankees have sucked at home this year 44-37. On the road they’re 50-31.

I get the impression that the umpires/staff are pissed off when a challenge occurs and refuse to overturn a call.

I dare you question my calls!

Rooting for the Yankees is like rooting for Walmart or Exxon

I’d like to see Judge come down with MS

Oh and **** that whole trash city

They weren’t trying to intentionally pitch around Wells and Volpe. They just couldn’t find the ****ing plate last night. When they did, the Ump was squeezing them needlessly on the corners. Then, he calls a low ball below the knees on BWjr for strike 3 and out 2 in the 9th. We got ****ing jobbed in that game. **** the Yankees and **** MLB for protecting them (replay)

It's not. They didn't even go yard for cheap homers in that stadium ROFL but you can still win thanks to those starters. You don't need ridiculous hyperbole dude

You scored TWO runs thanks to blown calls and this is not arguable. In a 1 run game, that was the difference.

This is coming from a neutral observer with no emotion tied to the game. Royals got ****ed.

9/11 wasn’t that bad of a deal when I remember there were a lot of Yankees fans in those towers

Just seeing it again :facepalm:

I'm still pretty damn pissed.

They want that Subway Series. Understand that.

And New Yorkers and Jared Fogle have a lot in common

They want New York vs LA.

That’s exactly it and the umps will steer it that way any chance they get. MLB is hell bent on getting a Dodgers/Yankees series and they could care less about what the poors in flyover country think.

New York and LA markets plus all of Japan.

I will never complain about listening to Denny Matthews ever again after listening to Bob Costas call game 1. He was drier than a mouthful of sawdust. Yeesh.

He's lost his fastball. Costas used to be good in the 1980s with Tony Kubek.

He's still good when he's on MLB Network talking about baseball history, but not calling a game.

Out of all the crews that have called a postseason game, my favorite has been Jon Sciambi and Doug Glanville.

Costas just shouldn't be in a pbp role anymore. He's a fantastic host and feature commentator in any sport. But play by play just isn't it.

It was a complete screwjob, yes. Umps/MLB did not want the Royals winning that game. Sucks when that happens to you in baseball, doesn’t it?

Cool now give the title back from near 40 ago if you're going to cry that much.

I wish there was an option to switch to the teams radio broadcasts like you can do on MLB.tv. Every game on there you can switch between the TV and radio broadcasts of both teams at any time and it's pretty cool. They should add that to the broadcast on Max.

I didnt see both replays last night, but looking at this, its pretty obvious his glove hits the tongue of his shoe well before his heel hits the base. Bummer! But still say, dont walk so many, especially first batter up in the innings. The pitchers might have got squeezed on the strike zone some, but the replays I seen where the ball 4 was called, the ball was completly out of the strike zone, unless they kept moving the outline of the strike zone box on tv?

You see that line behind you? :doh!:

BWJ and Vinny going 0 fer in a moment that was too big for them was a big reason the Royals lost.

Eat shit pie, queer.

Also **** straight off.

Never mind the fact that the offense scored more in one game in NY than they did in two games against the O's with those two going 0-fer last night?
