Umpires interfere with infielders much worse than what the Chicago base runner did to the Baltimore shortstop, who had no trouble catching that pop fly. The infield fly rule had been called, and the shortstop's path to the ball was not hindered in any significant way. The 3rd base umpire severely misapplied the rule. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runner at 2nd must always be aware of what the shortstop and the 2nd baseman are doing. Vaughn also knew what he was doing...but I may be a bit biased here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good headline. I commented a few times on that article. Making your way in the world today Takes everything you've got Taking a break from all your worries Sure would help a lot Wouldn't you like to get away? Sometimes you wanna go Where everybody knows your name But they're never glad you came You wanna be where you can see The troubles on you, they blame You wanna be where everybody knows your name When Angel Hernandez walks into Sam Malone's bar, everyone yells out, "BOOOOOOOOOO!!!" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Principled Man Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 I HATE baseball ! Brewers have bases jammed and no outs against Zack Wheeler. Brice Turang, their fastest runner, is at the plate. What does Turang do? He taps into a 1-2-3 double play. Contreras then strikes out. I HATE IT! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
