Rangers @ Astros, September 5, 2022

Man, that wasn’t even close. Ok, it was a little close.

This is taking way too long

Bullshit

Replay is pointless. That’s as wrong a call as there could be.

That’s also monumentally stupid by Altuve.

Clearly safe. How the hell could they not see that?

I have lost any confidence I had in the ability of replay to correct the umpire fuck-ups.

With the heart of the order up, no less

I wouldn’t even say that was a fuckup. I can see where the ump thought he was out. But on replay it’s clear as day. That’s Angel Hernandez bad.

Bottom 8.

Leclerc pitching.

Alruve - singles to left.

Pena - singles to center. Altuve to 3rd.

Alvarez - pop up F3, then Altuve thrown out 3-2 at home. Pena to 2nd. Astros challenge, but call upheld.

Bregman - K’s on foul tip.

End 8. Rangers 0. Astros 1.

What did they decide about the laces of the glove? Do the laces count?

Also: do they say “stands” vs “is confirmed” intentionally, as was once ostensibly the case?

He obviously thought he could make it. Which he did.

Laces don’t count

Laces do not count. And no, they don’t differentiate “confirmed” vs “stands”

Does hair count? Altuve is pretty hairy.

Hairs and the uniform count.

Since 2016

I’d get 85 foot hair extensions if I was playing. Just think of the lead you could get.

Pitching Seager awfully gingerly.

Well that was fun
