There is blame for sure. But if theriot is backtracking several steps, and Soriano is just standing there, why dones't he call him off and make the catch?
Definitely possible. Yeah the Reds protest a game that means nothing to them, in which they have gotten the benefit of the doubt on several calls. Meanwhile the Astros called to ask me if I could pitch against the Brewers. Seems on the level to me. You honestly think the Astros are trying to lose don't you?
I find it hysterical that the Reds have gotten the benefit of every single close and blown call tonight, and have the gall to protest. I'd hope the Cubs would do the same thing. It sucks, but its legit.
Pete Mackanin complained he wasn't aware of the double switch. Lou is supposed to alert the umpires before he goes to the mound. He did not. They showed it on video. I am getting the Reds broadcast.
