    worst call in baseball history?

    1st and 3rd 1 out in the CWS... flyout to center... guy turns a double play and they say the run scores from 3rd even though the inning is over? Who are these umpires? What a bunch of idiots.

    Did the runner cross home plate before the out?

    Yes he did. That doesnt matter man. Thats like saying on a bases loaded double play if the runner scores before the double player is recorded he scores... thats a horrible call.

    If the runner crosses home plate before the last out is recorded in the inning, the run counts.

    Pat,

    The rule does not apply to forceouts, which is why run doesn't count if batter grounds into double play. But since thrd out of Cubs game was a tag play, then the run counts if it crosses before the tag.
