MLB regular season thread - part 4

[kingsholygrail]

Old man Utley hits a solo shot.

 

[Kane One]

And Utley hits a home run.

 

[NJDevs26]

Sigh...life ain't fair sometimes.

 

[hockeykicker]

[hockeykicker]

[The Night King]

Slammmmm Utley

 

[kingsholygrail]

Grand slam for old man Utley.

Message received I guess, New York.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

There you go, Chase! Troll these ****ing New Yawkers!

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Utley turning back the clock to the late 00's one last time?

 

[Satan]

Utley killed that

 

[Devilsgrl35]

The home plate umpire decided this game. Syndergaard made him back off the plate, got tossed and now Utley is comfortable because he knows there will be no inside pitch.

I wouldn't call throwing behind a guy an "inside pitch." Come on now. You knew exactly what he was doing.

He didn't hit him. Give him a warning and move on. Don't toss him. It changed the game.

I'm guessing the umpire warned them before the game. And if he didn't, why do it anyways? Going inside but not hitting him is one thing. Throwing behind him? You know the intent of that, especially from a guy like Syndergaard who can control his pitches.

If you wanted to do that, save it for a scrub reliever who doesn't know where the pitch is going. Instead you probably lost 4 or 5 more awesome innings because you're being giant babies.

Dodgers are mashing

You can complain about the Ump's decision to toss him, but don't pretend it was just a regular pitch.

 

[Halladay]

Right field at citi field is called utley's corner.

If the umpire warned them before the game there's no shot Thor was going to throw at him. It was an overofficious decision by a rookie call-up umpire.

 

[darko]

That should've been a warning for Syndergaard.

 

[Devilsgrl35]

The fact that the Mets could never retaliate on Utley after his dirty as hell slide in the playoffs is crap. In addition MLB rescinded his suspension. Everyone knew this was coming at some point. Syndergaard's pitch had intent, but he came nowhere close to the head. Warn him and move on. That's the issue I have. There was no intent to injure. It was a message to him that he won't mess with us. And the umpire got in the middle of it and for the rest of this game the Mets pitching staff could not throw inside.

This isn't over. They'll hit Utley again.

I love baseball feuds.

There's one game left between these game this season and our ace got tossed when he should've been warned. Tonight was the night to send the message to him.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

White Sox with an epic collapse in 9th inning ,, Fallen back to earth hard

#### Robin Ventura ,, #### Jerry Reinsdorf

No way should Robin have a job in first place let alone still leading this team into gutter

As for these Shields rumors ,, If Sox gut future for a 34 yr old SP this team will be going nowhere
