TK and Blummer were saying the angle was not down the line like it is in the US, it was more a view from 1B

Took a meatball down the middle for strike one, check swing foul on a meatball down the middle for strike two...flails at a pitch in his eyes for strike three.  U-G-L-Y

Trout has the smallest strike zone in the history of baseball.  I guess, he'll let the umpire know if that pitch belt high right down the center of the plate is a strike or not.  Good grief.

Yes.  Not sure what Trout was doing standing there watching it.

JV chasing him back scared Trout back to second.

But the play was at the plate.  The whole point of the contact play in that situation is that both runners move.
