    So the three outs the Orioles "recorded" in the seventh inning:

    1. Dyson steals second, Schoop pushes his foot off the base
    2. Called strike three that was clearly inside according to PitchTrax
    3. Called strike three that was clearly inside according to PitchTrax on a 3-2 pitch with a runner on.

    Fucking shitty umpires.

    Edit: As Big Circus noted.

    The Dyson steal was a good call. He definitely came off the base.

    Clearly pushed off the base. Not even a doubt.

    Uh, clearly. Without doubt. That wasn't a cramp that suddenly shot Dyson's foot two feet toward right field.

    Like Ron Gant back in the day.

    He overslides the base every time he goes in. He almost did the same thing on the steal of third against Oakland. Buck obviously scouted him well.

    And yet his foot stays on the base if Schoop doesn't "help him off the base" as EJ (I think) put it.

    Maybe that foul off his mask will help the home plate umpire figure out a real strike zone.

    Royals and extra innings: a winning combination.

    EDIT: I think.

    The call on Dyson was right.

    And I bleed blue.
