Utley wasn't going for the bag.
Go figure, never would have guessed Utley was an asshole.

Ya don't know how you can be safe if you never touch the base.

Its like yesterday when the Rangers player was tagged out when you see the replay and yet they marked him as safe.

I always understood that that type of slide was an automatic double play

I thought you weren't allowed to slide when you are already past the bag like that?

First, Tejada should have touched 2nd base. He didnt. He had all day too.
Second, yes Utley slid late but there's no rule against sliding late. And as long as his hands can touch the base he can slide sideways and take out anyone.
Third, Collins should never let Addison Reed pitch to Gonzalez. What are the Mets lefties there for if not for that situation?

OK I'll give you all that, but Utley came nowhere near the base himself, how can he be safe?

Its probably because once the umpire calls you out - the play is dead and over (so whatever you do after that point doesnt matter). But, if it is shown that a guy did not touch the base for a force out, you automatically get the base. That is what I'm assuming.
Like for instance if there were guys on 1st and 2nd base and the hitter hits a ball to the 3rd baseman. 3rd baseman rushes over to tag 3b and throw across to 1st for a DP. If its ruled that 3rd baseman misses the 3rd base bag, then the guy running from 2b to 3b would get 3b (even if he never makes it there or runs off the field).

$303 million dollar payroll and their only playoff win comes from a blown call on a dirty slide. Hope Mets get a BIG lead in NY and then bean Utley in the head. Turn that ph a gg into vegetable.

You can't bowl over a body armor wearing catcher, but can target a guy at knee level on the infield.
Another legacy of Bud Selig.

You see far worse slides than that it was really unlucky.
Every guy in baseball does what Chase did there. He kinda went sideways usually it's two feet aimed at second baseman.
I had to head out in the 5th so missed it just trying to watch replays now, it looked like Tajeda touched the bag? I guess he missed it as I've only seen two angles.

Yes. The ump called him out and signaled that he was out, so Chase went back to the back. He didn't voluntarily choose not to touch the bag, the ump called him out. So since the ump made the wrong call, Utley goes back to 2nd. Also, easier to do that then have cameras determine the outcome of the game. Settle it on the field.

Not going to be missing a Mets/LAD game from now on though. Unfortunately Utley sucks so much now the only chance of him seeing a high fastball at him or grazing his chin is pinch hitting.
Harvey high 90s fastball into gonzo back maybe after he Ks the first two? Would blow Citi Fields roof off if he did.

1) Double play balls, 2nd base isn't touched everytime, yet is always called out. --> Utley should have been called out
2) Utley never touched 2nd base, so again, he should have been out and not safe.

Joe Torre explanation, if tejeda tags utley then he is out regardless. Why the penetrate is tejeda tagging him if he just ruled him out? Fuxk utley he's small time throw it at gonzalez forehead
