Was the game ending pitch as bad of a call as it looked on Gameday?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

10 hits, 3 walks, no runs?

 

Four hits short of the nine-inning record.

If Gameday said it was a bad pitch then Gameday was off. He painted the outside corner perfectly against a rookie up in that situation.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Man, this is frustrating.

why does it matter if it's a rookie? if it's a strike it's a strike.

Thanks. Just for reference...

It matters in how the pitcher is going to approach the batter. I wasn't bringing up Fox being a rookie in terms of the call. I was bringing it up in terms of it being a perfect pitch to lock up a rookie hitter in an 0-2 count.

[Little Slide Rooter]

While it was an all around poor offensive effort, is it pretty safe to say that the play of the game was Fukus 1st pitch tailor made double play in the 1st?

Pretty much. Right after that they rocked Vazquez around for a few more hits, and throughout the game they were hitting the ball pretty hard off him.

 

Horribly frustrating game to watch. Gotta hate seeing so many baserunners and getting no runs, and wasting such a good outing out of Dempster too.

 

Lou letting Dempster hit for himself in the 7th was a bad decision. Don't need to overrate how bad it was, but it was a clearly wrong move.
