It has been called.

 

Another W to the books.

 

A day at a time. A day at a time, folks.

According to the ESPN scoreboard, the game is final. The SOX are now 31-20.

 

The MLB site is now showing the Sox winning their last 2, so I agree. This also makes sense.

I know. I just responded to you because I felt tired of hearing Kike bashing, too.

 

Get mad at Bloom for signing a .730 hitter.

 

Get mad ar Cora for putting a .730 hitter up first.

 

But why get mad at a .730 hitter hitting .730?

 

I blame Bloom and Cora for this 31-20 record.

I mean, how bad are the umps?

 

The Yanks got a BB on 3 BBs!

 

Nobody contested it. Even worse.

 

How bad? Probably better, alas, than anyone who might replace them. I think it's time to let the players call their own balls/strikes, and close plays at first. If there's a dispute, let the fans decide, who are never wrong.

On a team some felt might be 20-31.

 

There was a guy on the BDC forum whose sig line read 'I blame Francona for this win!'

 

I really liked that guy...

It would be so cool if there was like a terrorist at a game, and one of the roboumps went robocop to catch the terrorist.

 

Come on. That would be neat!!!

 

What would the movie be called though ?

I do. His screen name was Daffy Dan.

 

I can't believe some of the stuff I remember.

I watched the replay and a whole bunch of pitches, which is probably why everyone but everyone lost track of the count.

 

If none of the Tigers, including the manager, knew what the real count was (3-2, not 4-2), then to me it's a BB.

Could not agree more. I'd even like to see roboplayers because the essence of baseball is getting rid of human error.

If you go to roboplayers, the next logical step is robofans.

I’m just trying to picture the new pre-programmed heckles for umpires from robofans.

 

“Kil the umpire” and “Hey ump, you need glasses!!” Would be replaced with “Obsolete the umpire and his unsupported software!!” and “Hey, Samsung Ump-O-Tron 3.0 you need to upgrade your optical sensors to the latest version that’s compatible with reality!!”
