IMO the Plate ump was squeezing Angels pitchers for pretty much the whole series...
PU has gotta love when they show you the the little strike zone box on TV

Check out this article on last night's Yankee/Angel game. Let's us all know that even the 'big boys' make mistakes...

That "box" is a computerized guestimate and I put very little faith in it.

I put very little faith in plate umpires
I'd rather die than lose, you have to live with losing

I know its just a guesstimate...but when pitches are inside the little box...they are usually called strikes. When 3 pitches hit the same spot in the box and only one is called a strike I feel they were being squeezed...Sebathia was getting them called outside the box.
Just a guesstimate ...but I bet MTR is an umpire?

If you caught it, the plate ump had a mic on and the Angels coach came out and talked to him about the inside pitches. The ump explained that the catcher was blocking him out on the inside and that he was trying to go over the top of him.
