I just got back from the game... What happened with Crede's double in the bottom of the 4th? I was in 163 and it bounced in to the row in front of me... fireworks went off and a lot of people thought it was a home run... but they never showed a replay on the Jumbotron. Did it hit the warning track and bounce in?

 

 

Wha Happen?!!?

That's exactly what happened. Robinson climbed the wall, but the ball bounce on the track and over the wall. The umps originally signalled a HR, but overturned that call after the conference.

The ball just bounced off the track. Kerry Robinson miss playing the ball confused the hell out of everyone including the umps.

Yea that was crazy.....I thought it went out I just didn't see it land then I see it bounce on the track over the fence...and said to myself what the hell?

 

that Robinson character just wasn't havin a good game out there today.

I was at the game...section 350, I saw it perfectly. I was a lil suprised when the fans were booing. I thought it was fairly easy to see it bounced over the wall.

The Roayls are so bad this year they've started taking money on the side. Robinson was trying to sell it as a HR.............for some cash on the side.

 

Seriously though, if an ump can be decoyed that easily, it makes you wonder how much they actually see.

If they are really that bad AJ would be getting a lot more s*** goin his way.

Me too. I was telling everyone in our sec,that it was not a HR and they all thought I was crazy.

I was not too far from you. I thought I heard it (I was that close) hit the padding on the top of the fence. I know the reason they don't replay crap like that on the board is so that the umps don't have to take hell from the fans but if a pitcher has to watch his mistakes sail over the fence in 40'x50' high def, the umps should have to take thier medicine too.

not for the people in the upper deck. i was in 529 and it looked like a home run

I was in 536 and clearly saw it was a ground rule double

I was just surprised that he misplayed it by that much

I though that the ball had hit the railing, bounced onto the field and then into the stands.

I had a great view from section 102. Crede hit it and I thought to myself, "hit well, but not well enough." I thought for sure the center fielder would have an easy play on it. But then, he jumped up against the wall. A split second later, I saw the ball bounce on the warning track (6-8 feet from the wall) and bounce into the stands. It was a huge surprise to me that the fireworks went off.

 

Ground-rule double was the right call.

Is that even physically possible??

Haha, my grandpa told me that he saw it bounce off the railing over the fence, then come back in play and bounce off the warning track, and then bounce back into the stands. LMAO.

I had thought that the ball had hit the centerfielder and somehow jumped over the fence.

 

I really had no idea what had happened.

I felt like an idiot, because im fairly good at reading balls of the bat at the games, and like everyone else, I thought that ball cleared the fence.

LOL

Is Cuck the Fubs your grandpa?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Like the ball that hit Canseco in the head and went out for a HR?

Yea

I think it happened to Willie Mo as well this year.

Is Cuck the Fubs your grandpa?

No, no he is not. And now that I see it, that's really wierd that they said the same thing lol.

Yea

Did it? I know there was one HR where he looked totally stupid but thats because he wasnt used to the small wall there and it didnt hit his head.

It didn't bounce off his head, sorry, it bounced off his glove. Same concept though

i thought he hit the ball really hard, and right as it left his bat it hit the ground under him, then propelled into a homerun off the ground.

The ball just bounced off the track. Kerry Robinson miss playing the ball confused the hell out of everyone including the umps.

 

 

I watched the game on WGN and have to say it was one of the craziest things I have seen in a ballgame in quite awhile. I am sure that will be in some ESPN highlights. It sure looked as if Joe was going to get the homer and so it must have looked to Kerry Robinson. He jumped at the wall and the wind knocked the ball down enough for it to bounce on the rack and over the wall. I think the only one who knew it wasn't a homer was Joe Crede.

 

But on the otehr hand how about that Joe Crede and his great clutch hitting? I luv the guy.
