Even if they let him challenge this neighborhood play, I'm not sure we will win it

[Andy]

Well, that last replay seemed to give Joe much more of a case. Looked like Suarez may not have touched the bag

to me, he clearly misses the base

[Guest]

yeah he very clearly never touched the base

[Andy]

Yeah, I posted that before seeing the 2nd angle. I don't think he touched the base either.

 

And it won't be reviewed

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Even if you can review this, it's not getting overturned.

[weis21]

should be 1st and 2nd, nobody out

[Guest]

the frustrating thing there is whatshisname the infielder was very clearly able to touch the base and didn't, not because he was afraid of Ross crushing him(Ross did anyway), but because he would have had a less strong throw or a throw that took longer. That's my biggest problem with not making the neighborhood play reviewable, I'm sympathetic to the safety angle but in practice it's justifying illegitimate double plays where the infielders miss the base for speed and not safety. Thankfully Bryant beat this one out.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I swear when Billy Hamilton bats lead off against the Cubs, he literally ends up leading off like three innings.

I originally assumed it was soccer, but the boat angle actually gave me legitimate pause. It....it still is.

i believed it was bocce ball

[DiamondMind]

I want to win this game so bad

[Bryants Disco Ball]

i believed it was bocce ball

 

I didn't totally discount bocce ball, but that possibility came on so late that I felt we were just being dicked with.

[weis21]

Maybe it's an elaborate and sophisticated Mario Kart tournament? Didn't they have a golden cup circuit?

[Guest]

Did Castro just tweak a hammy?

[weis21]

can someone please get in touch with Costas to gauge his feelings about Pedro's dead relatives viewpoint of his performance tonight?

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Did Castro just tweak a hammy?

 

He always looks like he has a tweaked hammy as he's running back. Unless you saw something else.

[Guest]

[DiamondMind]

HOW ARE THESE BALLS NOT GETTING OUT

[Guest]

No. You have a right to be pissed if you want.

 

Come on. We needed that.

[Guest]

[Andy]

Rizzo missed a dinger by 2 feet and now we're not gonna score. Ugh
