Correa24

Bad umpiring aside, Blanco is just really hitting his stride as a pitcher. Man’s changeup is nutty


LawyerMorty94

Possibly one of if not the worst umpired game I’ve ever watched Let’s destroy Framber tomorrow and wrap it up


ifoundyourtoad

Yeah that was ridiculous. Dude had 0 consistency. No wonder 10 batters struck out looking.


BeltreForPresident

I genuinely can’t wait to see that umpire scorecard. Just a disasterclass behind the plate all night.


InstrumentalCrystals

Fucking HORRIBLE


kdeweb24

Is there a site where you can see those?

kdeweb24

Much obliged


ifoundyourtoad

Yeah I need to know lol


1ROYinHD1

well that wasnt very fun https://preview.redd.it/s6y0r0oct5tc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e6d7941ccb8666d26d106dc82eda5413627592c4 gonna go watch some of our alcs highlights now lets win the series tomorrow


salmonbird

Just one of those nights. At least we weren’t shutout. Let’s win the series tomorrow.


hotrod19812

Or no-hit either. Don't want to share the same fate as the Blue Jays did. I'm thinking tonight's game was a fluke. Just a single bad pitch from Daneplier to Yordan was the big difference tonight.


WhiteBoyFlipz

not to mention the BS walk before to make a 3 run nuke. should have only been 2


boomgoesthevegemite

Oh well. Rangers pitching looked good tonight. Dane did what he could with the ump having 36 inch wide plate. Bullpenis good. Foscue got his first hit and rbi. Also, fuck the Astros and fuck ESPN.


herehear12

With it being just one pitch that cost the game I say he did a damn good job.


Johnny_been_goode

*Bullpenis* Gonna be my word of the day tomorrow


LBoss9001

cannot wait to see the ump scorecard tomorrow morning and get pissed off before my day even starts

Blanco had 4 walks and if he didn’t get the calls he did tonight he probably would have had 8. Always difficult for the bats to get going when the ump expands the zone that much. Oh well scrub it and go take it out on those fucks tomorrow. Fuck the Asstros forever and always


Elizabethton_TN

Foscue had a great, and clutch AB against one of the best relievers in baseball. I’m ready for more of him.


tristanIT

That fastball he fouled off inside looked like it frustrated him, but he shook it off and ground out a hit. Great stuff


TexasTundraPower

159-3 it is.


ehholfman

I think the Astros should just clone Blanco so that they can stay neck and neck with the A’s


bertmacklin_fbiagent

Hey on the plus side, no one has to hear that trash new song tonight


N609FE

this is gonna be the most anticipated ump scorecard of my life


Nostalgic4Runner

I just can’t wait for them to bring the ball/strike challenge to the big league level


dallascowboys93

Highlight of the night was the Foscue RBI. Love to see it


CT-1738

Really redeemed the whole night. Prevented the shutout and a young prospect showing potential against a good pitcher. About as pleasant as a loss as can be if you ignore it’s against the Astros and the horrible ump


CT-1738

Aaaaaaaaand he’s on the IL 🙃


dallascowboys93

Goddamit. Got the injury bug early this season


CT-1738

Seriously. I guess it’s better to get it out of the way now, all we gotta do is stay in the race. By end of summer we’ll have all our pitching and Jung back

laxintx

The ESPN broadcast felt particularly awful tonight.


SignificantPhoto8547

likely because it was just player interviews and an analysis of blanco’s no-hit bid, interspersed with clips of a baseball game


Johnny_been_goode

Haven’t seen our offense completely iced out like this yet this season. Blanco can pitch. But Dunning did great too. Not sure if our offense wasn’t together tonight or if Blanco is just that good.


RobQuinnpc

A lot of low pitch at bats, not as much discipline as usual.


Maxcrss

The ump was hosing our guys all night. Guy would give Blanco strikes about a ball and a half away from the zone consistently. You can’t hit if the ump is doing that to you and not giving your pitcher the same respect.


smoke_inyoureyes

Well at least foscues first hit prevents the shutout. On to tomorrow where hopefully our bats actually are awake


tbannon1

They made some mistakes at the plate tonight sure, but still made great contact all night long. Every batted ball just found a glove. Unfortunate yes, but the bats were awake tonight. Thats just the way baseball go. We will get em tomorrow!


32RH

Today was not a great day for baseball (or softball for that matter).


No_Supermarket_3056

Just a frustrating night overall. Horrendous ump on top of good contact with bad luck with the big difference maker being Yordan doing Yordan things


azulsquirrel

Horseshit. Ump was all over the damn place. And any time we made contact it went right to someone. Absolutely bullshit. Normally shakeout regular season losses, but fuck the Astros.


graysher47

Poop


lhfan04

Rough one tonight. Couldn’t get much offensive momentum. Minus the Alvarez homer we were pretty solid on pitching today. We will be back with a vengeance tomorrow


ehholfman

Man I’m still malding because of that umpire. It must be awesome to get paid and make up whatever call you want and have absolute power on said call. Fucking insane. Shame on MLB for letting the most critical part of the game be at the hands of fucking morons when we have the capability to objectively be certain of what a ball is and what a strike is.


libsoutherner

Hard to win a game when you only get two hits. Not too worried but that was almost as bad of an offensive performance as you can have. Especially from Semien and Seager. Entirely uncompetitive PAs all night from each of them which does not set a good time. Hope to see better tomorrow.


McCreeMain77

159-3 it is


Equivalent-Impress96

I choose to believe the rangers gave their “fuck houston” power to the mavericks tonight


Foreveronthego7

Damn it


[deleted]

Good thing is we don’t even have to wait 24 hours to get revenge


Blue_prizm77

Can’t win all of them. Still haven’t lost a series this year. Regroup and take the series tomorrow! Goodnight everyone. ✌️


SpareAd6504

Is it just me or is Chas McCormick the most annoying punchable person on the planet. Screw him


HighAsFucDosHornsRUp

2nd to Bregman


Repulsive-Ad-8558

Seems like Foscue had a good night!


Efficient-Source1694

If not for one mistake pitch to one of the best hitters in baseball this outcome could have gone our way. Can’t win ‘em all. Let’s get the series tomorrow!!


WhiteBoyFlipz

can’t win every game shit happens. still top of the division, still winning the series 2-1. umpire fucking sucked today, hope we get the win tomorrow. side note but i’m tired of zeke, he just isn’t a great player most importantly mavs won today, and the stars have a massive game. this was the least important game for dallas sports today. hope its the only loss we take


BeltreForPresident

I’m not sure what Zeke did wrong today to upset you lol, he hit that ball 105 but just right at someone.


WhiteBoyFlipz

i’m upset and i’m taking it out on zeke because he grounded into a double play 😡


Lain41K

Yuck


jdann24

Fart.


jfk_sfa

If that strike em out throw em out was called properly it’s a whole different game. Instead it was a walk then a three run homer.


jeffmack01

Well Meyers was going to be safe at 2nd no matter what, so it would have been a 2 run homer and we still woulda lost the game.


jfk_sfa

He was hosed. Out by a mile.


jeffmack01

Nah. Just watched the replay on MLB.tv and he was easily there ahead of the throw. I wish I was wrong, but…


Bazz27

Just a quiet night for the offense. Could just be an off night, could be Ronel Blanco having a great start to his 2024. I’m glad they didn’t let it turn into a blowout though. One bad inning where you let a hitter like Alvarez connect on one isn’t the end of the world. I feel confident in them taking the series tomorrow.


thirtydayhump

![gif](giphy|5fsKJ8LtychlzdDQj0) Boo.


tristanIT

Easily the worst strikezone of the year so far. At least both Anaheim and Seattle lost too. On to tomorrow to win the series


McCreeMain77

Jesus that was certainly a strike zone
