CWS Game Thread - Other Games

I'm sorry. It's been painfully obvious this whole tournament in games I've seen.

Umpires are consistently screwing up ball and strike calls. They know they screwed up and then they try to fix it by calling a pitch the other way later.
Since the expansion of sports gambling, you can't really trust it isn't a factor, can you?

I hate whining about it, but it effects people psychologically. It runs up your pitch count. You start aiming instead of throwing. Now you are missing the strike zone.

It's a different world when you think you have to groove one to get a strike call.
 
I really didn’t think Florida would get of that inning only behind 1-0. Not thinking it’s going to go well for the gators. LSU is pitching, fielding, has bats pretty much at every spot. It pains me to say, without a doubt, they’re the best team.

It's the same for batters on a bad call. Gets in your head and you start guessing at pitches

Preaching to the choir 99...

The Vols had the best pitching staff in the country this year. Three first round draft picks on staff and didn't use any of them in Game 1. Think about that.

Unfortunately, we couldn't touch left hand pitching throwing 80 mph with a Fat Albert bat.
 
Youth leagues are always looking for quality umpires. They’ll even pay for the gas. Then spend 10-15 years earnestly seeking to make the midweek games. I would guess, this is the best D1 NCAA has.

That’s just sad honestly. They have completely made a mess behind the plate for the entire CWS.
