Kevin Long Gets Tossed Because the Strike Zone is All Over the Place Again
Shoutout to K-Long for recognizing Nick Castellanos was about to get rung up and falling on the sword instead:
Zone all over the place. Kevin Long tossed. Topper's had enough.

Umpiring has been a shit show all year. It started in Spring Training with JT:

And now we have today. Mix in the injuries to Brandon Marsh and now Darrick Hall with the 1-4 start and this start has been pretty frustrating. Now Gregory Soto just gave up a 2-run homer while writing this. What the fuck.
Need some good news? I sure do. Bryce Harper is back taking BP on the field:
Thomson said Bryce Harper took regular BP on the field in Yankee Stadium yesterday. He’ll hit on the field again tomorrow.
