How much $$ Did the Umpire have on the Yankee's tonight? Picture inside

[payingthejuice]

You be the judge .... a Mistake or a totally blown call

[lakerboy]

If you bet on the twins tonite in yankee stadium in the playoffs you havent really been following baseball for too long

[payingthejuice]

I didnt bet either side. But I did enjoy the game up until that point

[lakerboy]

I didnt bet either side. But I did enjoy the game up until that point

i enjoyed it too cause it save my live bet on yanks

[pavyracer]

I see why he messed up. White line, white ball, white uniforms, white shoes.

[Immortality]

He was obviously too far away from the play to get it right.

He couldn't have blown the call - he was right there when the ball fell. How can he screw up from that position?

[gummo]

I didn't see the game and I don't see the proof in this picture without the ball kicking up some dust in fair territory.

[TPowell]

you dont see the spot RIGHT BELOW the ball???????

[pavyracer]

I didn't see the game and I don't see the proof in this picture without the ball kicking up some dust in fair territory.

Can't you see the devit in the dirt? Look under the ball and slightly to the right.

[TPowell]

Pavy, you're not betting against the Hogs and Master Petrino are you?

The ball hit the glove. What's the ruling if the ball hits off the glove in fair territory but lands in foul? It's still a fair ball right?

Not that it mattered on this play though as the ball clearly landed on the fair side. It wasn't even close.

[Smoke]

twins never had a chance.. their still ridin on a HIGH from beatin the tigers. REALITY CHECK 101 - TWINS AIN'T SHIT

Petrino can't coach in high school. His defense is like swiss cheese.

lol so will this ump be employed for tomorrows game?

[rm18]

that is how far fair the ball was, you do not even think of that divet being possible

[rm18]

We like Our Kansas in that game

[Rich Boy]

How can you blow this call in a playoff game, MLB needs to revise this, implement some system to prevent bogus plays like this from happening...

But they wont, they will just forget about this and move on, in 3 weeks when the Yankees win the world series nobody will remember/care about this incident which completely changed the series.

MLB is a joke, only sport where people actually SLEEP during games

[TPowell]

Pavy, Petrino's defenses take a lot of chances and look bad because they give up a lot of points. His offenses are top notch. Best offensive mind in FOOTBALL

[Smoke]

It's easy to win games and win over umpires WHEN YOUR GONNA BUY YOURSELF A WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONSHIP.. thats what the yankees did.. they'll never earn it CAUSE THEY BOUGHT IT.. Here ya go CC here's 150 million for you , heres 170 million for you the guy who played for the angels last year but can't remember his name, and how about another 80 mill for you AJ burnett. what a bunch of bullshit

[Immortality]

[gummo]

Didn't the Rockies have some right to object to a wop ump in NYC?

[TPowell]

Yankees wouldn't beat the Dodgers or Phillies in 7 games

[pavyracer]

Look Auburn kicked their ass 3 teams in a row in Fayetteville and the will destroy them again this year.

[TPowell]

Pavy, Petrino or God himself couldnt help that POS team they had last year. This year, he has built an offensive powerhouse. They'll upset 1-2 ranked teams this year and this could very easily well be 1 of them

It's simple. Implement a challenge rule like in NFL (but hopefully more like the way they do in tennis which was a stroke of genius).

[tacomax]

Good job on the video. Fukkin' brutal (and not even a close call).

[payingthejuice]

Something needs ot be done... How can he call that a foul ball... it wasnt even close.

[ryanspeer2001]

I can't believe how bad of a call that was. If the ump had been 25 more feet back maybe.... had the ball been 3 inches closer to line......maybe. Had he not looked so on top of things...

Just sad. I could care less who wins or won that game but damn that is a bad call.

[Hotdiggity11]

He was obviously too far away from the play to get it right.

If only he was 3 inches closer.

[Hotdiggity11]

"Nobody feels worse than the umpire."



Ump probably layed the chalk on the Yanks for 50k. Probably enjoying hookers, cheap beer, and blow while the crew chief was making that speech.

[droc]

unbelievable..........he couldn't possibly be in better position to make the call.

[charitableman]

the twins still had bases loaded and 0 outs. they need to stop complaining
