May 27 Cubs (Zambrano) vs Pirates (Duke) 1:20 CST

[rawaction]

Go Carlos! He shouldn't been pitching that inning anyway.

[Cynosure]

It doesnt matter if Z bumped the ump or not, they can still suspend him for not leaving the field in a timely manner, and throwing things.

 

Throwing equipment is only a fine if it doesn't endanger anyone.

[Outshined_One]

Are you sure he got his left hand in there? The last replay i saw it appeared Z had done a pretty good job of blockin the plate.

 

He did a great job blocking the plate, but Z got his glove down on the wrong spot. If he immediately tagged Morgan on the arm, Morgan would have been out. However, the glove made contact with Morgan's head/chest after Morgan's left arm touched home.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Carlos ejected the umpire because he initiated the contact. Z did push back.

 

Haha. As soon as I say this MLB.tv catches up and Bob points it out as I type it.

 

Doesn't matter. A player doesn't have a right to stand in the ump's face and argue a call. If contact happens while the player is doing that, that's his own fault.

[Cynosure]

More awful officiating... this league should be embarrassed.

 

 

He was safe

 

Yea, saw it in real time didn't know how it was possible... how umps can see things like that but still fail to call a consistent strike zone is beyond me.

 

They do call a consistent strike zone. The TV camera angle skews everything for the fans.

 

You obviously haven't watched/been to many games this year.

[A-Cal]

hahahahha

 

that was the highlight of the season so far!

 

 

 

\:D/

Yea real highlight losing your ace starter for a suspension

 

sour grapes...enjoy the moment already

[gflore34]

Thank you Mister lazy pos Soriano, all because you can't cleanly pick up a slow rolling gb.

 

Lazy?

 

How many times have we've seen him take the wrong angle on a ball, then loaf to it after it gets past him? Ask Demp about that - see his last start in St. Louis.

[Sammys Boombox]

He was [expletive] out!!! Z is probably gonna get suspended now....[expletive]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

He was safe. Z's getting suspended for no reason.

 

Z's suspension for the bump is going to be BS though because the ump bumped him.

 

Are you sure he got his left hand in there? The last replay i saw it appeared Z had done a pretty good job of blockin the plate.

 

I would say if I had to guess he got it in there, but I don't think it's conclusive either way.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

You obviously haven't watched/been to many games this year.

 

This is your standby every time anyone disagrees with you on anything, but you really have to know that's not true by now.

[Keener98]

Why Ph Hoff against the lefty and not Fox?

[cubweiser03]

Z tossing the umpire because he got bumped is all kinds of awesome.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Hoffpauir, pinch hitting for Guzman, popped out to second base

[Little Slide Rooter]

Honestly. if he gets suspeded, it will be one of those 5 game/1 start deals, and they can appeal long enough to get Rich Harden back, at which point Wells or Marshall, whoever doesnt get penned can take the start.

[Sammys Boombox]

Z tossing the umpire because he got bumped is all kinds of awesome.

 

Agree.

[laurens]

Guess Z has to wait another 5 days to get that win n° 100

[BigSlick]

somebody hit a donger I dont want to watch this game in extras

[Cynosure]

You obviously haven't watched/been to many games this year.

 

This is your standby every time anyone disagrees with you on anything, but you really have to know that's not true by now.

 

Yea the majority of people in these GDTs have seen it as well.

Soriano struck out swinging

[Cynosure]

Theriot finally remembers he can hit .310+ as long as he doesn't hit home runs!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Theriot singled to center field

[jersey cubs fan]

Thank you Mister lazy pos Soriano, all because you can't cleanly pick up a slow rolling gb.

 

Lazy?

 

Besides, if you think he's a piece of [expletive], it's nice that you still show him respect and call him "Mister."

 

Yes, that kind of error by a major league outfielder is very much a lazy error.

[gflore34]

Soriano struck out swinging

 

Seriously, when he's not hitting there's not a more useless player in baseball.

[Little Slide Rooter]

And now we have to rely on Heilman, Patton, Ascasnio, and new guy. Not looking good.

[laurens]

Ron THeriot is having a pretty good day
