The thread over there is about the protest from the Cleveland/Milwaukee game on Monday night. There should have been a run scored on a timing play, but the home plate umpire screwed up the call. Apparently, the crew chief sent one of his crew members in later to actually check the rule book, confirmed that they screwed it up, and then put the run on the board three innings later. The debate is whether they can do that or not. I'll go find a link to that thread and come back and put it on here.
Unusual occurence in April 28th Baltimore-Cleveland game |
The incident was actually during a Cleveland-Baltimore game, and I believe it occurred on Saturday.
Either way, MLB issued a ruling today that the protest would not be upheld.
