 You could hear Boone say to Whitson you're squeezing Garrett Cole like you're giving their pitcher pitches And you're squeezing my guy and there's the look at what was called the strike And then the pitches that are around the box Bob He doesn't have any yellow or bright color. That is out of the box That's the key look at the blue dots on the line and now look at the blue dots and And the called strikes that were called strikes for Yarborough, there are many that were outside the blue line, right? So remember the viewer at home you're looking at this from a catcher's perspective So Bob is right you see on the outside corner where he was getting all those strikes I count eight or nine dots that were pitches that were not strikes that were called strikes So yes, the Yankees lost a lopsided game the rays have been their nemesis There's aggravation when you lose to a team you hate to complain about umpires And I remember when I was a baseball writer and I would be sitting in the press box and getting ready to write a story I always thought that the team that was kind of crying about the umpires Well, they're lamenting the way they didn't play the Yankees have a legitimate reason to be angry at Whitson today For the way he called this game and for that Kiermeyer play at first base They have a reason to believe that the umpires did not call this game the right way now one final thing about this to Yarborough's credit He pitched a complete game. He did a nice job his arm angles and that slider It really creates such a different illusion than Garrett Cole more over the top Straighter foreseeing fastballs up in the zone if it's deceptive for a hitter could be could it be a little deceptive for an umpire Well, here's it's a great point by you and first of all yes I mentioned Yarborough in the same sentence as Maddox and Glavin before so give him his do for his first complete game ever But you're right Bob, and I think what happens and I'm working on a book with David Cohn We talked about this a lot a picture can sort of lull an umpire to sleep in what he's doing with his pitches It's also the setup. Where did the catcher set up sometimes a catcher can set up a Fraction out of the strike zone and the umpires thinking well He must be right in the zone. So Zunino did a good job. Yarborough did a good job They mesmerized the Yankees today. They baffled them today But the Yankees would counter with Garrett Cole has the best strikeout to walk ratio and major league baseball He's around the zone. Maybe he should get a couple of those calls, too, and that didn't happen. All right
