So it was trap the umpire called him out and then replay showed a trap and the guy gets second?

 

It's dumb. It's like they're emulating what would have happened had they made the right call or something.

I have seen enough of Luery for 2014.

 

He'll be sent down as soon as Beckham's healthy.

That should be a fun five minute highlight video on mlb.com tonight....

so that's two guys we are tired of already

Someone in the stands is really screaming at the umps

Basically we got penalized because the umpire made a bad call. Because if he ruled it a drop from the get go, Eaton would have had him at 2B anyway.

This game is a disaster.

 

Yep.

At least we made Suzuki look awful for once.

Well, to be fair to soxfest, it's 2 guys that if they're on your roster should be your 25th man.

Not hard for the mics to pick up one of the seven people in the crowd.

Nice throw De Aza!

Can't believe Flowers hung on to that ball. Would have bet my life he'd drop it.

That's the part that makes absolutely no sense to me. You can't just give him 2B because Eaton dropped the ball. That's like assuming Plouffe would have been at 2B. But he clearly wasn't. He was running back towards first when Eaton "dropped" the ball.

Nice peg ADA

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 03:33 PM)
f***ing Luery didn't even step on 2B. What a twat.

Not only that, but Idiot Eaton not only drops the easiest fly ball of the year, but then he can't even throw it in to second, three hopping his throw to the inept utility infielder, L Garcia. Just play the game, boys.

This inning was a disaster. The game isn't over.

By the way, look at the way Flowers was set up over the plate. Paging TaylorSt, paging Taylor, I'd like to know why the umpire didn't rule the runner safe.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 03:33 PM)
Wow, awful. Plouffe would have been out at second easily.

False. He only ran back after the out call. He was almost halfway to second. If the initial ruling is no catch, he's at second easily.

 

You can't punish a baserunner for not knowing a call will be reversed on replay.

 

See, these are the issues I brought up before. Instant replay isn't as easy as everyone thinks.

Plenty of time.

Nice job Webb lets get some runs.

wow. that was an inning.

Dj saying the second base ump, called him out so no need to step on second

All Garcia had to do was to walk over and step on second. Once time was called, it was too late.

That's what I was saying earlier, the only outcome of that review should have been figuring out which runner gets to stand at 1B with 1 out.
