that's so awesome on so many levels.

 

what happened to IMB!?

 

he got b& for no good reason

Nobody gets banned for no good reason. If he was banned (I will neither confirm nor deny) it would have been for a good reason.

Ankiel almost breaks his damn neck, and might not even need a DL stint, but 3 of our top guys miss significant time on routine baserunning plays. Theres no justice in baseball.

 

As a Cubs fan all my life, that has been evident to me for a very long time...

You're not used to this? I fully expected Ankiel to be okay. I'm glad he is, of course, but if that had been a Cub his career would have been over, and the ump definitely would have ruled it no catch.

I didn't think this picture could get any better. And what'd IMB! do to get in trouble this time?

I know this isn't how it works in baseball, but if a guy made a great play and ran into the wall, give him the damn catch.

is it wrong to hope ludwick does the same thing tonight? if so i won't do it.

 

Thats a horrible thing to even say. Almost as bad as hoping that Pujols elbow finally falls off or Ryan Brauns back gives out, which is why Id never hope for such a thing.

If IMB is in fact banned yet Meph is still allowed to post here its BS in my opinion.

 

True... but thank God, IMB was banned... he was more useless than me... also, I use proper punctuations.

this can't possibly be true.

I kinda got a kick out of the "it was a catch because he'd already transferred the ball to his throwing hand" argument. Does anybody really believe Rick Ankiel was thinking, "Man, I gotta get this ball back to the infield--and quick!" just before he tasted the outfield wall?

Who cares why he did it? No one is speculating as to the reason why he transferred the ball. The fact remains that he did.

 

Pretty much every umpire will rule it a catch on a successful transfer to the throwing hand. A lot of them will rule it a catch even if you drop it during the act of transferring the ball.

Why does the call matter? The Phillies were handily winning 6-1 in the bottom of the 8th.

 

My friend at the game said both teams pretty much packed it in after the scare and long delay.

 

Admittedly, I did not watch the game, as shocking as that may seem.

Looks like he's going on the 15-day DL.
