For those watching on TV

is EV missing a lot or is he getting jobbed by the ump? Lots of the Gamecast pitches (for what they’re worth) look right down the middle.

by bengalred on Apr 17, 2008 3:45 PM EDT reply actions  

Jobbed. Big time.

That last one was right on the corner, Cubs announcers even said so.

I think he's looked pretty good

He’s still striking out a lot of guys and has kept the walks down. I think they’ll keep him up.
