00:00Missing a ball strike call by .9 of an inch is not a blown call.
00:04It's called a game of inches, right?
00:06Yeah, I'm not arguing with you on that part of it.
00:08Sometimes you get the call, sometimes you don't.
00:10I don't need this.
00:11But anyway, Murray, you disagree?
00:12I do.
00:14What separates a pitcher like Garrett Crochet to who did the Reds start yesterday, Andrew Abbott,
00:19is that a guy like Garrett Crochet can take advantage of a half of an inch inside the strike zone
00:24and be that pinpoint with his pitches.
00:27Whereas a guy like Abbott or a hack like Brian Baio, sometimes these guys benefit from shaky calls from umpires.
00:33And these umpires know the strike zone, or they should, as well as a good pitcher does.
00:36So get it right.
00:37That's all.
00:38And there should be checks and balances for this.
00:40And it goes quick.
00:41I like it.
00:41I have no issue with it whatsoever.
00:43We're already up eight minutes per game on average.
00:46Short sample, but this is why I like opening day.
00:50Let's see what that time of game is.
00:52It has to be ABS.
00:53Yes, there weren't any, uh, I don't think there was any extra inning games yesterday.
00:59Uh, so.
01:00Well, Mets Pirates was a mess because the center fielder was a butcher.
01:03I mean, that first.
01:04Oh, yeah, O'Neal Cruz.
01:05Yeah.
01:05Well, yesterday's Red Sox game was bogged down by a traditional replay challenge in the first inning.
01:11That play at first base took way too long.
01:13It did take too long, yeah.
01:14Uh, so that's still a problem.
01:16I'm, I'm against replay in all forms.
01:17I'm against any proliferation of replay.
01:19I'm against ABS.
01:20I don't need it.
01:22And I don't need these game times creeping back up because we're just jerking around with half inches here and
01:28there.
01:28I don't need these game times creeping back up because we're just jerking around with half inches here and there's
01:29a lot of things that we're just jerking around with half inches and there's a lot of things that we're
01:29just jerking around with half inches and there's a lot of things that we're just jerking around with half inches
01:29and there's a lot of things that we're just jerking around with half inches and there's a lot of things
