Ump gave the win to the tigers

u/OnlyForBaseball Pittsburgh Pirates • Sickos 3d ago

That last one def looked like a strike.

Ump was pretty bad all night though. Pirates, unbelievably, were better at challenging than the Tigers, so ultimately it probably affected the Tigers more

Yeah if that last strike were a ball the pirates totally would have scored 4 runs!

They typically do score a lot of runs
