Both HR’s tonight on a 0-2 pitch  

 

Both to Encarnarcion last weekend in Seattle, same shit.

I'm hearing it's Lucroy's fault. 

[Troll Daddy]

Tovar!

[Angel Oracle]

Doug White is a joke.

What a terrible hire!

pitch calling.  Throwing a pitch that any hitter can take deep on an 0-2 count is absurd.  

Have I mentioned that I don't like Lucroy?

Great play to end the inning at least.

Did Heaney tell you

the pitcher has to execute better.  the catcher has to call pitches that the his pitcher is capable of executing in certain counts.

So Skaggs can't put it anywhere near the plate with 2 strikes; Heaney can't put it anywhere but dead center. 

That being said, one hit through 5 innings against Gonzalez is more pathetic.

White needs to stop telling pitchers they should groove fastballs.

I’m thinking the location was a little off

WTF?

 Why is he throwing an 0-2 fastball in the heart of the plate with his 107th pitch?

These guys are killing me.

 

Because Lucroy told him to.

how about they stop throwing fastballs 0-2 or 1-2.  

did I just hear that they've given up 14 hrs  in that count?  

come on.  that has nothing to do with pitch calling?  

[UndertheHalo]

Hate this very much. 

[Jay]

It has to do with dumb catchers and dumb pitchers.

 

[Lou]

It's ridiculous to blame anyone but Heaney for his shitty pitching 

[Claude]

That was a cookie and that’s on Heaney. He’ll learn from it. He pitched a terrific game. This definitely falls under the pitching under pressure because your offense took the night off.

it was for sure.  it was about a ball down and in from where lucroy put the glove.  

he put the pitcher in a position to where the hitter takes him deep when he misses by that small of a margin it means he called the wrong pitch.

Pitch calling.... That's not Doug White.

[Angel Oracle]

It has more to do with shitty pitches.

Why doesn't he shake off the pitch call if it's so dumb?

it's absolutely Heany's fault for not executing the pitch.   But it had to be in the perfect location or what happened happened.
