October 8, 201411 yr I hate when the home plate umpire calls that. It is total bulls***. You have umpires on both bases to call that. Just horrible.
October 8, 201411 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 11:17 PM) That ump should legit be fired for that. It was so bad. I will never understand why home plate umpires call that unless it is very obvious
October 8, 201411 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 11:17 PM) That ump should legit be fired for that. Well no. However, that's one where if it's not totally obvious he goes around, you throw it down to 1st. He must have thought he went way further around then he actually did. That check swing is one I grab when doing one-man, or in two-man with the base umpire in the middle (runner on). On that, you always grab the strike there.

On that, you always grab the strike there. It's the 2nd to last out of this team's season, it's completely unacceptable for him to not throw it down to first. That's f***in awful.

That's f***in awful. I'm agreeing with you. And now time for more ridiculous baseball champagne celebrations like you won the World Series.

October 8, 201411 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 7, 2014 -> 11:30 PM) I know. I'm sorry, I really don't want to deal with Cardinals-Giants here. Blah. Gooooooo AL. 5th straight year it's either Cards or Giants. Although I'm much more sick of the Cardinals.
October 8, 201411 yr I'm with you guys. I don't really hate either team, just wanted to see something different. I am extremely sick of the Cards so go Giants. No matter what I will be cheering for the AL team in the World Series.
October 8, 201411 yr Living in Missouri sucks this time of the year. 4th straight year I have to put up with this s***. And to add to that I work with a few Royals fans.
October 8, 201411 yr So, who is Mattinglys replacement? Can't wait to hear the real story behind Puig getting benched yesterday.
October 8, 201411 yr Well, I am officially rooting for the AL in the World Series regardless of which combination of teams gets there.
October 8, 201411 yr I'm still amazed that Ned Yost was only the 2nd worst manager in these playoffs. The Dodgers' best hitter didn't get an at-bat in a one-run elimination game, but he did pinch run. Fireable offense on its own?
