Chapman is NOT an Elite Closer; wild as a grizzly bear on the streets of the Bronx, but not as feared... A wonder any opponents bother to take bats off their shoulders let alone swing at any of his wild offerings...
Chapman makes me nervous as a whore in church. Makes me miss Mo.. replay looks like Olsen was tagged out before he touched the plate, he is out call it right
Sweet Play by Gardner 2 save this game. I only wish Brett had a stronger arm, good enough I guess that's all that counts
Note to Sanchez- you cannot improve your Mendoza Line batting average by swinging at balls and watching strikes go by...
It doesn't get any closer than that. I'm kind of surprised the umpire crew got that call right, as pitiful as they have been this series & this year. Seems like umpires are only getting worse over the last couple years... Good thing Scheurwater is not behind the plate,-
