But the fallibility of the human element makes it so interesting!

I don't get why they didn't leave Holderman in for the 9th instead of bringing in Bednar.

Man he had him too.

That looks pretty clearly out

Postby **King Colby** » Sat May 18, 2024 4:29 pm

That's completely wrong

Postby **nocera** » Sat May 18, 2024 4:30 pm

Why’s he trying to show the ball mid play anyway

Get rid of replay

Pretty standard maneuver by a catcher

They can't be serious.

Boooooo

It’s nuts that it was confirmed not just stands.

The MLB said the player touched the plate first AND Bart didn't complete the tag lol

Didn't have the sound on but did they say anything about why you wouldn't intentionally walk the guy who has, by far, had the best swings all day with 1st open and 1 out in a bottom of the ninth scenario???

They rarely second guesses their moves.

It took me at least five replays to confirm he was out.

I can see how the home plate umpire got the call wrong but not the replay people.

This one is a real head scratcher

Postby **genoscoif** » Sat May 18, 2024 7:35 pm

It's really not though. It's the 'was the play close enough that we don't have to ruin the home team's celebration? It is! Sweet!'

No reason for conspiracies. Bad decision making from the remote officials.

The Kool-Aid is easier to swallow when no one is telling you that it's poison, eh?

Eager to hear why you are and were always right about the pirates when they are good next year
