VIDEO: Third Strike Call on Tigers' Brandon Dixon is Single Best Argument for Robot Umpires Yet
By Mark Powell
As if the Detroit Tigers needed any more help being terrible of late. The Motown baseball club were swept by the Astros and lost a 19-3 drubbing at the hands of the Oakland A's on Friday. Could it get worse? Yes, even the umpires are against them. Daniel Mengden ought to send over his game check.
You can't be serious...that is a full three baseballs outside, and the single piece of evidence players need to prove robotic umps should've been installed in the game yesterday.
Dixon ought to know all too well where the strike one is, especially since he pitched in the aforementioned embarrassment against Oakland on Friday. The ump show wins again.
