Why is Collins bringing in Niese who lets up HRs at a pretty bad clip

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 15, 2015 -> 11:16 PM) No thanks, he can go to St. Louis. I would rather have Buehrle then Danks in the rotation.

QUOTE (AlSoxfan @ Oct 15, 2015 -> 06:59 PM) MARK BUEHRLE DENIES RETIREMENT TALK The veteran pitcher, who was left off the Blue Jays' active roster for the playoffs thus far, said he hasn't made a decision to call it quits at age 36, despite reports to the contrary at the end of the regular season. I still think he wants to end his career in St. Louis or Chicago

What are we going to do with Micah and Sanchez? Are we going to find another 2B or who is going to take that job?

Please Toronto, sweep them!

Looks like Houston gave up. Swinging at everything

Cubs-Royals would be the worst World Series for Sox fans in a long time

16 in a row for Cueto. Sure did s*** the bed this game.

2-1 because Carlos Gomez can't stay on his feet

2 run bomb by Houston after Moose makes an error on a long throw

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 06:16 PM) It looked like Buehrle was sitting in the background pretty laid back. I didn't even notice him at all

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 06:15 PM) Buehrle ejected! Because why not!

benches clear again. this inning can't just end.

I wonder what that fan did that made Banister want him thrown out of the stadium

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 05:57 PM) Maybe the weirdest inning I have ever seen Yep

Toronto is crazy.

Boom. Wow

This inning is absurd

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 05:46 PM) © He interferes with the catcher’s fielding or throwing by stepping out of the batter’s box or making any other movement that hinders the catcher’s play at home base. EXCEPTION: Batter is not out if any runner attempting to advance is put out, or if runner trying to score is called out for batter’s interference. Rule 6.06© Comment: If the batter interferes with the catcher, the plate umpire shall call “interference.” The batter is out and the ball dead. No player may advance on such interference (offensive interference) and all runners must return to the last base that was, in the judgment of the umpire, legally touched at the time of the interference. If, however, the catcher makes a play and the runner attempting to advance is put out, it is to be assumed there was no actual interference and that runner is out—not the batter. Any other runners on the base at the time may advance as the ruling is that there is no actual interference if a runner is retired. In that case play proceeds just as if no violation had been called. If a batter strikes at a ball and misses and swings so hard he carries the bat all the way around and, in the umpire’s judgment, unintentionally hits the catcher or the ball in back of him on the backswing before the catcher has securely held the ball, it shall be called a strike only (not interference). The ball will be dead, however, and no runner shall advance on the play. Look up 6.03A That is the one they keep citing on the TV broadcast

This is one of the strangest innings ever.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 05:44 PM) The 2nd play was not an error on Andrus, it was an error on the 1B. He still has 2 errors. 1st batter and then dropping the ball at 3rd

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 05:43 PM) Definitely no intent but they did call the play dead didn't they? Yeah the home ump called it dead when Odor was about halfway to home (he would have been safe no matter what). I am confused as well why he can change that part of it. Andrus with the dropsies

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 05:39 PM) That was straddling the line if anything, imo that should have been a dead ball The rule is that is still a live ball if the ump thinks there was no intent of the batter to get in the way of the catcher. At least that is what they said on the TV broadcast a few times. I don't think Choo had any intent of getting in the way, I feel like he does that same move all the time.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 05:34 PM) It was at the edge of the inside corner per the ESPN radio announcers Well I was watching on the TV and saw multiple replays. The bat was on the edge of the batters box, not the plate.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 05:30 PM) Hit the batter 's bat which was extended over home plate. It wasn't over the plate. The bat was still in the batters box.
