Casas is not only getting hosed, but it’s coming on pitches that would be low to a short guy

You'd think with the catcher lifting the glove half a foot into the strike zone, the ump might realize it was a ball

Bu bu but robo umps won’t be as perfect as you think and human umps actually get it right 95% of the time!!1!

Watching the A’s feed and their color guy actually put that on Casas. That home cooking would make Tommy Heinsohn blush.

Certainly feels like it. There aren't many guys in the league with his feel for the strike zone, so it kind of makes sense, but man is it ever fucking frustrating.
Ortiz used to get absolutely hosed all the time against LHP on sliders because umps simply can’t see the pitch well. It’s ridiculous.
