It wasn't a throwing error. It was dumbass Salazar's play to make because he should have been backing up the plate, but instead the prick is a spectator out on the hill. Dumb fuck.

McHugh was so impressed, he wanted to up Salazar's boneheadedness.

Is it just me or does this game seem painfully slow?

McHugh has thrown a lot of pitches.

Sorry, but I'm done.

It's an AL game, so, yeah.
I remember all the good times me 'n Miller enjoyed
Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy

It is putting me to sleep, I am trying to liven it up by playing the All-Ireland Hurling semi finals on the second screen.

Altuve just livened it up.
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.
