Chisoxfn Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Did it actually hit the bat? I didn't think it did but I also didn't understand how the run could score since the ump called time. I'm not saying the 3B could have made the play but he clearly stopped going for the ball as soon as the ump threw his hands up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 05:33 PM) It wasn't over the plate. The bat was still in the batters box. That was straddling the line if anything, imo that should have been a dead ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigHurt3515 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 14, 2015 -> 05:34 PM) It was at the edge of the inside corner per the ESPN radio announcers Well I was watching on the TV and saw multiple replays.

At least that is what they said on the TV broadcast a few times. I don't think Choo had any intent of getting in the way, I feel like he does that same move all the time.

If that's the rule, then yeah. Choo had no intention of blocking the throw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 MLB really needs to do something about the quality of umpiring. We have egomaniac jackasses who think that the game is about them. And then we have 3 blind mice making s*** up as it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is, the ump immediately throws his hands up and signals dead ball. You can't do that and then say play on, that's not fair to the defenders Holy defensive meltdown batman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) When I first saw it, I thought the bat was out of the box, but it was clearly in. Andrus had an inning like this against the White Sox. Edited October 14, 2015 by Dick Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the home ump called it dead when Odor was about halfway to home (he would have been safe no matter what). I am confused as well why he can change that part of it.
