Chapman pitching the 9th. Valaika grounds out to Frazier.
Hanny isn't a black hole. He's in a slump as a hitter. He's still light years better than Mesoraco defensively. And despite what many think, that IS the main job of the catcher...not his bat.
Ridiculous. Where did that 2-1 pitch miss? Oh, it didn't. Gone. 2-1 Marlins.
Gone. 2-1. Clearly not a major league hitter.

Choo has been rung up on that same pitch twice today.
Is it "next season" yet?
Such BS. Ump misses the strike 2 call ... forces Chapman to throw it right down the middle on 3-1 ... HR.
BS.
I'm tired of these garbage umpires stealing paychecks from MLB. That 2-1 pitch changed the whole atbat. That was clearly strike 2. What a joke.
Yeesh, a flat 94 mph butterball from Chapman right down broadway goes bye-bye.
Should have been 2-2 on Ruggiano, then Chapman would have thrown a different pitch.
That 2-1 pitch...I agree it was a strike...but not "clearly" a strike. At the bottom of the zone, borderline...but not clear-cut.
Chapman's velocity seems way down tonight. 93-95
