Reds-Pads: Reds still have 57-year old pitcher David Weathers on their roster?

Rag-arm SOB just walked in tying run in the 8th. Somebody shoot that horse and put him out of his misery. SHIT!!

[Spiccoli]

The Reds manager can kiss my ass as well!

Shoot him too!

That umps strike zone is wacked!! Weathers was pitching bad, but he was getting squeezed!!

Dude you must not have watched the inning live. It had nothing to do with Weathers. Jim Joyce's strike zone was the size of a shoe box you should have heard the FSN OHIO announcers completely drilling MLB for the inconsistency from this ump compared to the rest of the league. They even said it was a joke at one point and it was. There was not one but 2 pitches in the at bat that would have both been called strike 3 looking by all other umps in the league...horrible....

[ULikeApples]

You guys are right about the strike zone. I'm watching it here and it's been crazy small.

Re: Weathers - Yeah, and he came in for Arthur Rhodes who could be his twin brother in terms of age.

Now the 1B ump blew a pick off call that was obvious too. Nice game guys!

[mavskidd02]

There is not a doubt in my mind that this ump will make sure the Pads win this one.....

Dont ever take an under with Jim Joyce

Usually baseball is a sport you dont have to try and beat the officiating aswell as the opponent. Wow just wow...

This guy's either got $$ on the Pads, or him and his wife are bitching at each other and he needs the game to go extras so he doesn't have to deal with her shit....

Probably both..

However I do agree it was very strange for that strikezone to just randomly tighten up to a shoe box when the Pads had their last opportunity to tie it...

But then again he did give the makeup call on the strike 3 looking to end the inning after it was tied on a most likely ball. I doubt he has money on the Pads however it has been horribly and I mean HORRIBLY inconstent all night long.

Another thing I forgot to mention is that the Reds announcers said that if Jim Joyce was calling AL games they would be 7 hours long..

Him and Mrs. Joyce are having an argument over the phone in between innings. I read his lips he just said " I'll send this one to 18 innings if I have to!"

Could be a long night......

Let's go REDS!!

As opposed to what? All AL games are 7 hours long.
