Gameday Thread (4/20/24 3:40pm Pacific): Angels @ Reds: Sandoval pitching, no Neto, Schanuel hitting 9th

[Halo in Chicago]

WTF

[Taylor]

@daygloman's conspiracy theory about the "ump in NY" looks to be true.

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

bullshit

[Duren, Duren]

So Rendon lasted 1/8th of the season without an injury. Let's see how this one plays out. 

Weird start. Looks like a high scoring affair in the making. 

[Slegnaac]

The netting is in play but he gets the base?

[CaliAngel]

godammit...can't just get through 1 can we...

[Blarg]

That was a bullshit call. 

[HeavenlyHalos]

Seriously wtf? The ball was ruled in play but he is at second base. Also Rengifo continues his horrible defense.

[Slegnaac]

F these Umps and MLB

[HeavenlyHalos]

Aaaand Sandoval does Sandoval things immediately after smh

[HeavenlyHalos]

Washington should protest

Yeah, I'm confused.  No clue what is going on.

He didn't even seem that annoyed when they confirmed the call, so maybe there's something going on that we're not aware of it.  I don't get it.

I can only think they are calling the dugout area in play even though there is a net in front of it, so the ball is ruled dead. 

[Slegnaac]

WTF

Reds were the ones that challenged?

Yeah, that's what the announcers are saying now.  The ump did a terrible job of explaining it.

The ump said the Angels challenged and that the call was confirmed.  Lol.

[ScottM]

I have never seen a situation where hitting the netting in front of the dugout results in a dead ball. The fuck?

Ya, I see that the MLB app has changed it to Angels challenge.

Same.

If it stays in play there is no dead ball.

[Slegnaac]

This had gone to crap

[CaliAngel]

Welp.

Thanks Sandoval.
