Teams typically play worse on the road. Its not a weak justification. Its a different mound than the one theyve been pitching on. Theyll be better for this experience

I can honestly say this is the first time I've seen someone blame a mound for 25+ free passes in a series.

Statistically that's true in basketball, and to a lesser extent in football, but not in baseball. The MLB winning % for baseball teams playing at home is barely over 50%.

Are you special?

Jesus Christ, i hope you don't go home and make excuses for your son like this. "It's okay bobby, those darn mounds were a little different than what we are used to."

It's baseball, they are all played on the same fields. Its the same distance from home to first and the same distance from the rubber to the plate. You don't walk 21 batters in 18 innings because your playing on the road boss.
