If Moyer keeps getting these calls, the Tribe has no chance. It really makes you wonder how bad MLB wants seattle in the ALCS. I'm a homer, yes, but the third strike on Burks was absurd. Finley not getting the low strike is equally as bad. Just call it the same for both is all I ask.
Tribe has no chance

Give me a break! Yeah that call on Burks was pretty marginal all right, but Finley got the 3rd strike call on a curve that looked way inside to Cameron and struck Olerud out on a pitch that was clearly outside. Bottom line is if the guy has a wide strike zone -- which that particular ump is known to have --and did for both sides in this contest, in my opinion -- the hitters need to adapt to that and be prepared to swing at anything close. And that's the biggest crock of sour grapes I've ever heard about MLB "badly wanting" Seattle in the ALCS. Cleveland had their chances....they are a very good team and it was a heckuva series. That's all I'm gonna say about that. What are your excuses for not winning game 4??????

Just got back from Neil Diamond and have a few in me. Like I said I'm a homer. But Ichiro also looked damn out on instant replay at first base. Should the Tribe have hit better, absolutely. Not taking anything away from your M's. Is the better team there. Probably. Tribe had their chance at home and blew it. You have no idea how long it took me to just type that.
Good luck to your M's.
