as a sox fan im just pointing out facts...becket won the game and the redsox bats were thundering...tonights another night.
Not when he has a generous strike zone outside the plate and a finess pitcher like Francis doesn't get the same locations called....
Example: Hawpe called out on strikes....his third strike he did not break his wrists, nor did he cross the front of home plate and the pitch was 8" off the plate and called strike 3. Another example was Beckett's curve ball above the letters called for a strike....that's nonsense..... Beckett was throwing hard and throwing well..... Had Francis had the same strike zone.... We would've actually watched a pretty interesting game.
this is a travesty, imo. Consistency is what was needed and had it been applied, tonight's game would've been something worth watching. I am not so offended as Rockies' fan as I am as a fan of baseball.
