One other note
It was also great that Randy Marsh (my lead field instructor when I went to Harry's in the stone age) told the Tigers manager that it was his call, and made it clear with his gesture to all on TV he made the call and was not going anywhere else. If only we had more of that these days; it's my call, period.
That is also a tough call too, since the uniform is so loose on Inge it is hard to see it hit him in real time. Just like the old shoe polish check for balls hitting the BR in the foot, if Inge had his uniform looking neat and tucked in right, there would be no question Marsh would have seen it the other way.
The play in the 10th at home was a real wacker, and a great call.
Does anyone remember a game as important as this with more playing mistakes in it? Maybe the 1982 WS? No wonder managers are so irritable these days.
