I’ve long been against #RoboUmps. It has always seemed to me that it would create more problems then it would solve and didn’t seem worth the effort. Now, as the Rockies play meaningful games in September, and entire games can turn on a single call, I’m starting to come around.
The Rockies were shut out by the San Francisco Giants, 4-0, today. The Giants, who are trying to avoid their first 100-loss season since 1985, completed the two-game sweep. AT&T Park seems to have returned to its former status as a house of horrors for Colorado, who have now lost five in a row at the park.
