Do the umps really give it to the players like Buck and McCarver are saying? That's pretty stupid to me...if you don't touch the base, it's not an out.

Yes in most circumstances they do, but I can't blame the ump on that one, it was way too obvious.

How could anyone NOT vote for him? But some baseball writers are

, so who knows. Whoever doesn't vote for him first-ballot needs to get shot.

Melky with a hit...let's end this, por favor.

Suzyn did mention after commercial that there would be "some jerk" who would keep him out of the voting...then Sterling said someonewould not vote him in because he was a Yankee.

And the Yankees got real lucky with that call...I'd be pissed if it happened to the Yankees.

Time for Tex to earn those dollars.

Wow

 

[illoquent aka dsk]

EDIT:

 

[knightngale]

you can just feel this game will be over in the next 5 min

 

[dunkhead05]

a roid coming up not looking good we've got to get an out

 

[true 3 blue]

Yall can't even defend that as a bad call though. He wasn't remotely close to touching the bag, at least make the effort. He did a basic pivot with somuch space between his foot and the bag.

Smfh, we can't even capitalize.

 

[jordan201]

Wow we suck with the RISP today. Geez. And that's that we got a lucky (but right) call.

 

[WuTangZombie]

[tsamshox]

I want to see Tex walk and A-Rod hit a GW GS

 

[bkmac]

The inability for this offense to score runs is sickening.

 

[mez 0ne]

SHUGES, he wasn't even close though.

I hear you.

But I distinctly remember a similar play happening against the Mets and Mez pointing out that the umps ALWAYS give that call even if the 2nd basemandoesn't touch the bag.

I remember doing some research and realizing that for the most part, this is true.

So imo, the umps should have given that call to the Angels.

 

[T0INE]

*Sigh*

 

[bangdak]

we've got a long way to go fellas.

 

[vegashustla]

Tex +!+ man!

 

[venom lyrix]

damn...im pissed...props to Oliver

 

[div1lbc]

Wow at this game!

 

[lazyj10]

I've seen some pretty bad ones where dudes are like 5 feet from the bag with no attempt and get the call...it's obviously judgmental, but I didn'tthink he was THAT far off, compared to some.
