AUTiger7222 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Umpires cost the Braves a run there by not signaling out or homerun. Oh well, hopefully the Braves score enough runs that it doesn't matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUTiger7222 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 That double play doesn't happen if Ian does his job and gets the bunt down. Those are the little things that don't show up in the boxscore that make a difference in wins and losses, especially in October when runs are harder to come by.

AUTiger7222 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Just showed video of the umpires not signaling homerun or out or anything. Just awful. They have to signal something there. How can they not know if it's a homerun or out and signal something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did not show that he passed Riley on the replay on mlb.com. But not getting HR is on Duvall. He should know that you never pass up another base runner Edited September 23, 2021 by ToxicBraves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should know that you never pass up another base runner It wasn't Duvall's fault. Duvall was circling the bases like it was a homerun because it was. Riley was running back to 1st thinking the ball was caught. Riley was the one that screwed up, not Duvall. But in those kind of situations it's the trailing runner that is always out. But on the broadcast they showed that the umpires never signal anything. It took Duvall standing between 1st and 2nd and talking with the 1st base umpire before they finally signaled something. But by that point it was too late. The ultimate blame lays with the umpires for not signaling anything.

AUTiger7222 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Ozzie has reached 30 homeruns!! So we've got 3 of the 4 infielders with 30 homeruns. But we'll need a miracle for Dansby to reach 30 homeruns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUTiger7222 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Been begging for Snit to change the lineup cause Ozzie is terrible in the leadoff spot. So funny that once he finally gets his head out of the sand and changes the lineup that all of a sudden Ozzie's hitting again as are the other guys. Too bad it only took 39 games to happen.

As soon as it’s determined to be a home run, it should be a dead ball and that rule doesn’t apply. Seems dated. Riley thought the centerfielder caught it and was heading back. Because he thought Duvall was out, he probably didn’t think about passing him. Seems like something MLB needs to fix.

AUTiger7222 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Chip is just a little bit off in his "estimate" of how many major league baseball players there has been. He said there has roughly been 10,000 guys play in the majors. If he had said 22,000 he would have been much more correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUTiger7222 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 How the crap did Adam Duvall hit that ball? That was helmet high and I think he's safe at 2nd. It appeared that the tag missed him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUTiger7222 Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Oh, what's the point of having replay if the calls are ALWAYS wrong? I just don't get it. This system is just so rigged against the Braves. That's the only way to explain this madness and until every team makes a big enough stink about it it won't change.
