In the last 5 games, when has something gone right on the basepaths (involving stealing, or taking the extra base)? I could be remembering wrong but I don't remember any successful steals against the Orioles and if there were, there were probably twice as many gift outs.

Hawk, is that you?

 

everyone was crying too hard to actually watch the replay and see that he was easily back. No big deal though....guy getting picked off first to start an inning doesn't kill a rally or anything.

It was the wrong call, yes, but we shouldn't have to attribute possibly losing this game to the umpires calls. If we need calls to go our way to win the game, then we don't deserve to win in the first place.

Well, for one thing, he was leaning the wrong direction. Don't even put the ump in a position to call you out.

 

And it just killed that inning, we had a 3-1 count on Vizquel and Baker was struggling with his command.

 

You can't have a 70-75% success rate as a basestealer if that's one of the two assets you have as a ballplayer.
