Chirinos - 35 years old 14 innings and a four hour plane ride and  behind the plate tonight. At this rate, he will be in a wheel chair by August.

Going to see The Colonel for a few innings tonight. They really needed Cole to step up. In answer he flopped.

Cole ends the inning, but threw 33 pitches and gave up two unearned runs.

Looks like it might be another brutal night with the pen

2-0 Orioles

Cole just is not the pitcher he could be. Cannot pitch through even the slightest bit of adversity. It’s like a petulant baby pitching a little fit and fastballs right down the middle. He always recovers, but the damage is done because his pitch count prevents him from getting deeper in the game.

I agree he gets flustered by adversity.  Not sure "petulant baby" is a fair description though.

Yes, it was.

I was looking at the Score app and it had Gurriel striking out to end the inning. Bizarre.

Nope.  Fisher walked, Bregman grounded into 6U-3 double play, Brantley popped up.  Gurriel led off the 2nd.

Cole strikes out the side in the 7th, and does a good job to come back from a  bad start and eat some innings.

At the stretch, we're tied at 3

Man, ump took the bat right out of Straw's hands.

Tumpane having a rough night behind the plate tonight. He's called 3 or 4 completely off the plate pitches in different locations in big counts.

I don't remember him throwing 97.  Perhaps I just missed it, or perhaps he was really amped up.

I think you just missed it HH. He could hum it last year too. I think I read where he’s hit 99 before. Control is the issue.

Yuli never touched the plate, but the catcher never tagged him.  I guess that means the call stands, even if it was wrong.

Yuli never touched the plate, but the catcher never tagged him.  I guess that means the call stands, even if it was wrong.
I'm gonna go with he might have touched it but the view was obstructed.

Are you sure the ump wasn’t ruling “illegal blocking” or whatever the proper term is?

He never got within an oven mitt of the plate.  It wasn't even close.

Could be, but he pointed to the ground to signal the catcher did not have possession of the ball.  That wasn't the original call.

No, never tagged him.  Umpire signaled safe, and everyone left the field.

Several photos posted on twitter show the mitt touching the plate under the catchers right leg as he is holding up the ball to show the ump.

They showed one angle you could see Yuli snuck the oven mitt under his shin guard and tapped it, but it was very late in the play. If the catcher had picked it up and tagged him, he would've been out, then probably ruled that he was illegally blocking the plate and was safe anyway.

Here's shot of the mitt touching the plate:

Bottom line: if you want to tag a guy out you should actually tag him while possessing the baseball.

Kudos to Cole for his performance beyond the 1st and getting through 7.  And Hinch for leaving him in. Without Yuli’s error he likely pitches a complete game.  Even though those 2 runs were unearned, Cole has a 6.23 ERA in the 1st inning this year.  With it being Star Wars night, too bad they didn’t Jedi mind trick him into believing it was the 2nd already!

I'm still not convinced that picture shows the mitt touching the plate.  And there's a lot of ignorance in that tweet.    But yes, you have to tag the runner with the ball, and the catcher tried to sell to the umpire that he fielded the ball cleanly.  Not sure why, as replay would clearly show otherwise no matter what.  At any rate, another episode of "force them to make a play", and the Astros came out on top.

I like Harold Reynolds.  I really do.  He seems like a good guy, genuinely loves talking baseball, and he seems like the kind of guy you want hang out with, have a few pops and watch the game.  Sort of the opposite of Joe Morgan.  But he's so full of shit sometimes.

Have they always been playing Bregman to the right side of Kemp on the shift?
No.  It's been since Altuve and Correa are out.

Glad this question was asked. 
MLB TV does not usually provide a good view of the shift adjustments.  But after a RH hitter was retired and a LH hitter prepared to bat, Bregman clearly moved from SS to the 2B position while Kemp moved to 2B. 

Is this positioning intended to put the best DB pivot skill set for a potential DB with the shift?

I assumed that they are doing this to put the strongest arm out in the short RF spot.

His oven mitt is clearly on the plate in one of the frames they show on the MLB network show. You can see the white of the plate behind where his mitt taps.

The rest of it is some slightly warm air from Mr. Reynolds.

On a side not, I'm wondering how long before they place some restrictions on how big the oven mitt can be.  Can it be, say 17 inches?  What about 24?  Why not just carry a stick out there with you?

I've been wondering the same thing, and also wondering how much longer it will be before a stolen base call hinges on this.

I thought it was a pretty good relay throw.  It shorthopped the catcher, but he's got to come up with that.
