The Astros Lost On One Of The Worst Calls In History Last Night

I think this was a power trip by the umpire because you can only make that balk call if it's obvious. Stanek stepped off the mound, and even though there may have been a little bit of a flinch, you just can't call that. Tie game, Bottom of the 8th, 3-2 count. Just let it go, especially because he stepped off the mound. 

When you are the umpire in the field, it is like a night off for you. You don't have to call much, so stop trying to be a hardo. Stanek didn't come to a set yet either and even though I fucking hate the Astros, I still think this is a bullshit call. 

Watching the video, it honestly seemed like Dusty was sleeping in the dugout but knew he had to be mad based on Stanek's raction and just started slapping the dugout fence. I think an umpire or ref though should never end the game on their terms. Let the game play out and see what happens because losing a game like that is kind of bullshit.
