Time is running out jays. Lets go.

Did it actually hit the bat? I didn't think it did but I also didn't understand how the run could score since the ump called time. I'm not saying the 3B could have made the play but he clearly stopped going for the ball as soon as the ump threw his hands up.

Error by Elvis. One on.

That ump had the biggest wad of chew in his mouth I've ever seen.

Yeah...that was absurd.

i don't think i've ever seen that before

It wasn't over the plate. The bat was still in the batters box.

 

That was straddling the line if anything, imo that should have been a dead ball

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.

Defensive meltdown by Rangers

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.

Based on the replay burrhls posted it looks like it was at least in between the plate and the box

The two errors by Andrus are just unacceptable, especially for a good defensive player like him.

Definitely no intent but they did call the play dead didn't they?

If that's the rule, then yeah. Choo had no intention of blocking the throw.

MLB really needs to do something about the quality of umpiring. We have egomaniac jackasses who think that the game is about them. And then we have 3 blind mice making s*** up as it goes.

lmao does Andrus have a hole in his glove?

The thing is, the ump immediately throws his hands up and signals dead ball. You can't do that and then say play on, that's not fair to the defenders

 

Holy defensive meltdown batman

When I first saw it, I thought the bat was out of the box, but it was clearly in.

 

 

Andrus had an inning like this against the White Sox.

Edited by Dick Allen

Wow. Elvis Andrus with one of the worst defensive innings you will ever seen.

The 2nd play was not an error on Andrus, it was an error on the 1B.

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

Rangers are having a batman moment.

He still has 2 errors. 1st batter and then dropping the ball at 3rd

Pompey just kind of tripped the catcher...they might get two outs on this.

That ball was close to foul.
