Wandy has lost the plate, he's walked 4 of the last 5.

Lost the plate and the HPU has a small zone going. Not a good combination...

Struck out Rolen and got Gomes to pop out. 2-0 Astros so far.

The pitch tracker has corroborated most every call. I'd love to tell you different but it looks like the HP ump is getting it right.

Spaz!!! lays out for one to rob the Reds of a run.  Still knotted at 3 in the middle of the 7th.

The irony there is that if Votto doesn't steal second, and if not for the passed ball, Pence probably doesn't make that catch.

That fly ball to the fence is a play that demonstrates why I'd like to see baseball on tv from a point-of-view behind home plate. I can't understand why we're still stuck seeing the play from behind the pitcher every time. Can't they try something different?
