George knows far more about umpiring than most of us. That doesn't make him right here, but at least hear him out.
George the floor is yours.

Maybe. I don't know that it's a slam dunk though.
I don't know why they didn't dispute the 'hbp' of Beltran. That looked questionable to me.
Regardless, I don't think anything Farrell does should reflect on Price. Just because they're former pitching coaches doesn't mean they'll be mirror images of each other as managers.
I'll wait to hear what more of the rules experts say about this. I'm doubting this is a black and white thing.
Grape works as a soda. Sort of as a gum. I wonder why it doesn't work as a pie. Grape pie? There's no grape pie. - Larry David

If Redsox or Reds fans want to be pissed off at a decision, the focus should be on the decision to throw it to third in the first place.
"This isn’t stats vs scouts - this is stats and scouts working together, building an organization that blends the best of both worlds. This is the blueprint for how a baseball organization should be run. And, whether the baseball men of the 20th century like it or not, this is where baseball is going."---Dave Cameron, U.S.S. Mariner

Watched it again. Where is Craig even going? So you can establish a running lane that's both two feet inside the bag and directed towards the home dugout and still garner the World Series game ending obstruction call?
There's no way to know that things would've happened differently if Middlebrooks had kept laying on the ground. That's the problem for me. Once Middlebrooks fell down the fate of the game was sealed. Guess he just shouldn't have tried to field the ball.
