I like the intent, but I think it's unnecessary. There are too many reactionary judgment calls that need to be human perception to keep baseball what it is.

As athletes in every sport get bigger, stronger, and faster, I'm good with the umps having a lifeline that might avoid an unnecessarily terrible call. As long as the humans in NY stay quick and decisive as the humans on the field are required to be, I think it's all good. Just keep the challenges/stoppages limited and the reviews quick as a Clay Cooley commercial.

I think reviews in all sports should be under 2 minutes, if they can't figure it out in 2 minutes the play stands as called. Baseball could probably be done in a about 90 seconds.

Insurance

This is the Mariner team that I've grown accustomed to.

Ballgame.

Beating Felix twice in a little over a week.

Let's do this...

WB Matt Harrison!

Beltre will get 2 HRs today.

The GRD looked like he just missed it.

Rios looked out to me.

mitch has put together some nice at-bats today

Mitch is finally doing what all of us fans have known he could do, and what all of us fans have urged the Rangers to be patient for.



LOVE that guy!

Mitch the B/tch.

****. Don't like this.

With the long delay with the Rangers batting around... I'm guessing Matty's back has started to tighten up. He seemed fine and you could read his lips "I'm fine. No really I'm fine."

I don't think it is a big issue, but I think he back is just tight. He is likely done after this inning, even though he'll want to stay in.

They may let him stay in for another inning, to get the W, but it will depend on if he can get it or keep it loose.

A couple advils and he may be fine.

Minor league pitching for the Rangers:

AAA
Solid performance by Scott Baker (4-1)
6.0 IP \ 4H \ 2ER \5SO \ 4 BB (W)

At 31, he has my interest.

A - MB
Alex Gonzalez
6.2 IP \ 4 H \ 2ER \ 4 SO \1 BB (W)

At 22, he has been one that is making his way through the minors. Drafted in 1st Rd of June 2013 draft.

Matt getting out of a big jam there.

I knew the Mariners would find a way to screw that up.

Lots of teams have found ways to screw it up, against Harrison.

I keep getting my hopes up that the Mariners will rebound; those hopes keep getting crushed.

What is it that the Mariners have done that you keep getting your hopes up?

And having Spring Training doesn't count.

And that wasn't meant as a flame.

Just curious.

They started off the season well, then just fell apart. I keep hoping they'll start playing like they did the first few games.

Jesus F'ing Christ I hate Kyle Seager. Cahksucker is Ty Cobb against us.

Eff that guy

Seager!!!

Instead of congrats to Seager why don't we have a blah face for Ogando again.

But yes, Seager is a Ty Cobb against us.

Bullpen is a disaster this year

You'd think there's a scouting report on Seager...dude is turning into Paul Sorrento

No business losing that game

Pleasant surprise - Mariners win!

Awful loss
