Harry Chappas Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 Was the home plate ump (Wegman?) the same guy that had the atrocious series in Cleveland where he missed Graffanino tagging the guy at second and the game at the plate that was one of the worst I can remember, last nights was no batter. I remember Hawk commenting on him in Cleveland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiff Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 He worked the series in Cleveland May 30-June 2. May 30th he was the home plate umpire, June 2nd he was the second base umpire and Graffy played short. I assume that's the series you mean, as the Sox lost both games, and the one inbetween. I remember that series but I don't remember the specific calls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 I couldn't judge very well from the upper deck, but i heard on the radio a few people say he had a bad game yesterday at the plate  And his decision to eject Ginter was foolish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was the same guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxplosion Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 Hes a young ump and it seems he cant handle the pressure of being an ump. The whole Ginter thing was flat out stupid. Ibanez is the most dangerous hitter in the lineup. He hit Beltran which brought him to Ibanez. Hes not going to do that intentionally. Its not like he hit Tucker to get to Mayne (which still might not be solid proof of an intentional beaming). Ginter shouldnt have been thrown out. It doesnt look like Wegner is gonna make it very far. He seems to have a lotta people on his ass... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't realize that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxplosion Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 Agreed. No one in his right mind is gonna peg Beltran to get to Ibanez. How hard is that to understand? Well fine, but if he did peg Beltran on purpose, just kick him out of baseball because obviously he was throwing the game too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
