Foster also called Texiera out at home yesterday, even though the C clearly tagged him with an empty glove, and the ball in his bare hand. The Yankee announcers had a field day with that one, questioning whether MLB now had 'electricity' like you used to have while playing sandlot ball....
And lets not even mention Hirschbeck getting Texiera out at home Friday on a sweep tag, when he was totally out of position - directly on top of the play, and not on 3B line extended, like he should have been..from the proper angle he would have seen the hand in before the tag...
Pretty substandard weekend for that crew...just MHO....
