They say he didn't go, but that swing could have hit a strike. I also don't like when players get HBP check swinging or leaning in, so I'm satisfied with this one.

Cool!  Bench-clearing brawl coming up?
Zuckerman says someone in the LA dugout got tossed.

Anyway, we have the crap end of the batting lineup. Zimmerman will, naturally, crap his pants. Espinosa will flail  away like a jarhead trying to crap out the last two days of MREs. Severino will, naturally, get a base hit or a walk, and whoever Dusty gets to pinch hit (probably Robinson) will stare at strike three like that creeper does while you're in the stall with the enormous gap between the door and the frame.

It's time for the two black holes of the regular season (Zimmerman and Espinosa) to get it done. :whip:

It's redemption time. :judge:

Well, it isn't called often, but the strike rule has nothing to do with check swings. Doesn't matter whethet the bat crosses the plate. If the ump thinks he offered, it's  a strike. Tough crap.

I honestly don't think the umpires have any idea what a swing is anymore.

Remember, the check/half swing is a PLATE umpire's responsibility. If he doesn't see a swing, only THEN does appeal go to 1B/3B. #WASvsLAD

Zim is done. He gave at the office. Espinosa only hits when he thinks it doesn't matter.

Keep telling you guys this: Blanton isn't the same guy as he was as a starter. He's actually a good reliever.
