Well, that's one way to end a rally and a winning streak... hmm.

Trying to piece together conversations ... Trying to find out where to lay the blame"

How fitting... Stupid umps

That's not even close. How do you end a game on that?

Huh? Of course it was close. In fact, it looks like the ump was right.

Baseball can be such a frustrating sport. Could have been one for the ages.

 

Time to start a new streak on Friday.

Yeah, like I'm really anxious for Davy Nelson's commentary on that last play. Can't wait to hear him ramble through 50 poorly pronounced words and half-words on his way to stating some incredibly obvious statement. Why would FSN even tease with that ... that's an automatic channel change.

Well, start a new winning streak on Friday, I guess.

 

Great pitching tonight. This team will win a lot of games if the bullpen is even close to this good. And Estrada has been very good as well in the early going.

 

Just keep winning series.

Although Davey explaining the play is very painful, it does look like the front foot was still on the ground when the ball hit him and it should have been a foul ball.

No kidding. Between Nelson struggling to formulate sentences and the on field instructionals, i rarely watch Brewers Live except sometimes i tape it and fast forward to the interviews.

Watching the replay and pausing when the ball hits his shoulder, you would have a tough time arguing he had one foot out of the batters box, much less both.

It was just one of those nights. San Diego's pitching was nasty tonight. Disappointing that one guy ruined the game. A well deserved day off tomorrow for the Crew. The Dodgers are slumping right now. Hopefully we've caught them at a good time.

that's too funny. Pretty much verbatim what I said as I changed the channel to MLB Network.

Whether or not you think he had one or both feet out of the box, it had better be pretty damn obvious to call it. It was not.

 

You do not call a foul in the final seconds of an NBA game unless it's completely flagrant, you do not call a pass interference at the end of an NFL game unless it's very obvious. Same thing applies here.
