Astros @ Angels, September 3, 2022

Signal from HPU was hit by pitch. So far it’s been scored HBP. And it wasn’t that either.

If you watch the replay you can see he made a confusing signal first, then clearly signaled catcher’s interference.

ETA - I agree it was neither btw.

T7:

Peña pops out F6
Matijevic…full up…strikes out looking
McCormick…0-2…flies out F8

At the Stretch…1-0 Astros

Went back to look…At first he pointed to Tucker, but a replay a few batters later they showed him make the CI call, so I guess that’s the call. They may change it, but it’s still scored a HBP for now. At any rate, I’ve seen several CI calls challenged this year, though I don’t know when they made that reviewable.

Come on, Luis!

HIT THE MOTHERFUCKING CUTOFF MAN

Are you kidding me! Chas what are you doing??

Tied

B7:

Rengifo singles to RF
Ward with a 4-pitch walk, Rengifo to 2B
Ford flies out F8, Rengifo tags and moves to 3B, Chas misses the cutoff man so Ward moves to 2B. Terrible baseball by McCormick
Aguilar flies out F9, Rengifo scores, Ward to 3B
Stassi flies out F9

New ball game 1-1

Hell of an effort tonight by Garcia, including bailing out Chas

The walk from Garcia is what hurt him.

Yeah, that run scores anyway. But that’s just bad baseball by McCormick. You can’t let the go ahead run in scoring position when you have no play at 3B.

Altuve is hopeless against slider

Did Yuli call time?

All of these things.

Dammit, Yuli roped that one

Yeah, I thought that one might drop.

T8:

Peña…0-2…grounds out 5-3
Altuve…hacking at a slider in the dugout, takes a meatball down the middle…takes strike three for ball one…doubles down the RF line
Gurriel lines out to LF
Bregman pops out F4

1-1

Stanek in for the Good Guys

Another walk. I hate walks
