TBS Pitchtrax

 

Has anyone been watching the MLB playoffs on TBS? This stupid pitch tracker thing might be the dumbest thing I have ever seen. It's not even in the ballpark of where half these pitches are. It comes up a strike and the ump calls it a ball, it comes up a ball about 3 and a half feet outside to a lefty and the ump calls it a strike. It's pointless, get it off. 

Do they think that anyone actually cares about this fucking thing? All it does is take up half my screen and make me wonder why it's even there when I watch Ryan Braun get called out on a pitch that pitchtrax says is off the plate and almost hit him. It's fucking ridiculous. Did TBS just wake up one day and say, "Hm, I wonder how I can piss off every baseball fan? I know, let's put a big thing on the right side of the screen that tracks pitches, but doesn't actually have any idea where these pitches are." 

I mean really, if you were a roofer and you built a roof, and you were off by as much as this thing is, you'd still be serving time. Get it out and off my television screen before I have to boycott the playoffs of one of my favorite sports. TBS, get a clue. 

Sidenote: How many Yankee fans want Teixeira out? The guy might as well not even bring a bat to the plate in October, I can't remember a hit he got in the playoffs since that wall scraping home run that beat the Twins in the '09 ALDS.
