How were those ruled wild pitches and not passed balls on Yadi?

 

I think they explained on the broadcast that because the ball hit the dirt on both occasions, they have to be called wild pitches because a catcher can't be held accountable for what happens after the ball hits the dirt. Or something like that.

Yeah, that's the ruling logic that is used.

They suck so bad defensively.

 

they kind of suck everywhere except for hitting HRs, Carlos Martinez and possibly Reyes

Until he hurt his oblique, Carpenter was just generally awesome.

Yeah, but he just looks like a weirdo. Do they have any likable people on their team? They seem like they would be miserable to follow.

I think Zobrist would hit better if he changed up his walkup music. Yes I know his wife is threatening to withhold sex if he doesn't play it, but dude really needs a song that will get him and the crowd more pumped up and I think that's more important than sex right now.
