    Those strike calls against Marwin and Gattis are indefensible

    Screw that dumbass ump. That was clearly ball 4. I don't blame Marisnick for being upset.

    And another

    I didn't see ONE ball-strike call that went Houston's favor tonight.

    Rangers got 8 minimum.

    Marisnick is always a clown in the clutch.

    Do these HPUs ever get held accountable for their strikes and balls?

    Felt after the missed ball 4 Jake would strike out. Two let down series in a row.

    The strike out pitch not called a strike for Rondon that was closer than that bs is what changed the game.

    I seriously can't stand it when a rally is killed by a completely awful call.

    But either way, this offense has been beyond atrocious. I would like to say that some team is going to get one hell of a wrath when they figure it out but if they can't figure it out against Bartolo Colon then I dont know when they will.

    They get reviewed by the League but it's all behind closed doors.

    Slumps don't discriminate when it comes to opposing pitchers. Scrubs will look like aces.

    If we didn't have so much evidence with the likes of Springer, Correa and Altuve I may be concerned, but we do, so I'm not.
