you have a higher probability getting an out throwing out of the zone 0-2 than throwing a strike. The goal is to get the out, not conserve pitches.
0-2 ok. Not 1-2 and again at 2-2. And yes the idea is to conserve by getting the out without going 3-2 after being up 0-2.
You are making it seem like pitchers choose to work a full count. I don't know what to tell you.
well a solid two inches anyway...but still a ball.

He just threw someone out last week after missing a ball in the dirt 3rd strike - Red Sox game?
This is fun!

LOL I hear ya
I remember it well. It went over Shea bridge and probably out the bullpen gate.
It was very impressive

Supposedly Schwarber hit one even further @ Citi this year against Harvey in June - I have zero recollection of that one.

I guess I've been in Cutler mode with the Mets longer than I realized this year.
Well done assholes.
Somebody named Brebbia. Was up 1-2 on Betts and threw 2 sliders in the dirt and Betts nailed a 3-2 pitch.
Horrible..
What are these brown knots of which you speak?
They are both very young in a line-up with little protection (teams are not worried about facing Rene Rivera or the pitcher's spot) so way too soon to right them off. Now if the Mets had a line-up of Rosario-Conforto-Smith-Cespedes since they are not going anywhere this year, they may get more pitches to hit
This is a salient point. Cardinal fans are assholes. Frequently , drunk assholes. The myth of their greatness is the delusion of Costas, who pulled a Goebels and just kept repeating the line until it became accepted as the truth. I don't get out there as much as I used to. When I do, I must congratulate them for losing the Rams . The Blues remain blue. The closest they ever got was the Gary Unger days. But, remember, Cardinal fans are assholes . By and large as Coughlin used to say, with a fiendish consistency .
I'm a Cubs fan, too, so the loss did provide me with a modicum of joy although I was rooting for them because the Yankees are chasing and the Cubs don't deserve it if they can't win a mediocre division .
But what set the few Cardinal fans I've known above most of the asshole pack is the attitude that when they've won, they've somehow "done it right", as if there was a purity with the Cardinals winning not present with other teams.
So fuck them, twice when they choke away a win in Fenway
You truly are a gem. Your eloquent usage of profanity and vulgarity inspires me.
Do you watch veep? You'd love it.

I went to Sunday's Yankees vs. Red Sox game at Yankee stadium with my brother in law. My brother in law is a Red Sox fan and he was wearing his Sox hat the entire time. I was very surprised at how well we were treated by the Yankee fan base. There was some friendly ribbing but there was not a single curse word or angry comment during the entire game.

And I've had similar experience at Fenway...I have lots of buddies from Boston who are die hard Sox fans, and I've been going up to Fenway for games with them for 20 years...regularly wear my Yankee cap, and aside from a few colorful comments here and there, people are generally friendly and enjoy talking baseball.
Actually, the most shit I got in Boston was when I wore my NYG Super Bowl 42 Champions hat back in 2008. They didn't like that none too much:)
I like my drinking as much as the next guy and used to tailgate early when I was a season ticket holder with the Giants. But drinking through the game and two trips to the bathroom per quarter (or more) and returning with more stale flat beer never made sense to me. Especially annoying week after week with the same AHs going back and forth to drain the beer and refill continuously through the game. At least I got some squats in....
