I was just driving home from school listening to the Padres/Marlins game on the radio. The Marlin batter hit a line shot down the 3rd base line which landed just past Chris Guccione, who was U3. He turned with the ball as he backed up, and was looking right at the ball and pointed it fair, which ended up being a double and an RBI.

Immediately, Padres broadcaster Jerry Coleman said, "That ball was clearly foul, and I'm not being prejudiced for the Padres when I say that."

Ted Leitner said to Jerry, "well, they'll never reverse that!"

By this time Bud Black is out arguing with Guccione, who agrees to get help from Ed Hickox, the PU.

I'm saying to myself, "Don't be too sure, they are reversing calls left and right these days."

So I start rooting for Hickox to reverse the call, and sure enough, he overruled Guccione. Foul ball, take the run off the board, return runner to 1st base.

Then the Marlins skipper comes out. Joe West told him not to come out, but come on, he's gotta come out and argue on a reversal like that. West dumps him unceremoniously.

When I got home, I saw a couple replays of it. It was at least 6 inches foul, not really even close. I think Guccione pointed the wrong way by accident and knew he screwed the canine on the play.
