Cubs fan here Diggity...... clearly not dirty

[Chi_archie]

Seems like every time the Cubs play the Pirates something dirty-ish happens

[mr. leisure]

[daneblazer]

Dirty, but you have to be a little rough to make it in Chicago

[qwertvt]

Sweep the leg. No mercy.

Dirty as fuk rizzos fat fukin ass I was watching this game..actually had some coin on the bucks today...he totally went out of his way.

[eidolon]

Dirty. Can't slide into the player anymore if they are off the bag. Rizzo wen't for the kill 3 feet over from the line

[GUMMO77]

Filthy

[cincinnatikid513]

supposed to go right to the bag or plate gotta protect the catchers

[El Nino]

Dirty, clearly going for the take out. Catcher's foot planted, fully exposed.

[DiggityDaggityDo]

Commentators were Cubs homers right?

Not a clean play, you don't do that crap at home on a force out

[slambam]

This slide is banned at second base, this is even worse imo, because the catcher is looking the opposite direction making the throw. Rizzo started his slide after he was out, the catcher stepped forward to avoid the slide, and couldn't defend himself. It's about as dirty as they come imo, I give Rizzo some chin music tomorrow if I'm the Pirates.

[grease lightnin]

Not dirty at all. In fact... it seems the practice of flopping has now shown up even in baseball. Guy should try out for Broadway

Sad

[LT Profits]

As I remember the rules, 100% clean, good hard baseball. He touched the plate, isn't the only criteria for being "in the baseline" the ability to touch the base?

[TheMoneyShot]

What more did you expect a catcher to do??? He has to tag home plate for a force out. Step up 2-3 steps and then gun down the guy heading to 1st.

Chicago player was dirty and shady as fuk.


I'm all about sliding into someone at 2nd base etc.... but you can't slide into the field of play at HOME. That's shady and dirty... I would of beat Rizzo's ass. 100% surprised there wasn't a brawl started.

[Chi_archie]

MLB ruled the play by Rizzo should have been ruled illegal a few hours ago

[Chi_archie]

He definitely crossed the foul line.

yeah I think the was the powers that be in MLB's reasoning...

he didn't go out of baseline, maybe... (he might have a little) but he clearly deviated his path to purposefully initiate contact

MLB rule 6.01(i) says the "runner attempting to score may not deviate from his direct pathway to the plate in order to initiate contact with the catcher (or other player covering home plate), or otherwise initiate an avoidable collision." Rizzo, clearly, deviated from his path to initiate an avoidable collision. Was it a dirty slide? I'm not sure. Was it against the rules? For sure.
