If you look at the pitch tracker in the replay, even it had the pitch as way off the plate.

MLB umpires don't miss an easy inside corner fastball like that for no reason. Anyone see the game and know what kind of back story there is...
I agree there's probably something more to this...still no excuse for what Molina did. I thought Drake had a good zone all night. And yes, I'm a Cardinals fan and I thought that pitch was a ball.
