Horsesh!t baseball when you cannot score in that same inning of the call with the bases loaded and 0 outs.
Horsesh!t baseball when the manager in the postgame interview has to ask the press, there were 6 umpires right, because he didn't really know.
Who stranded runners all night?
Who gave up a game tying home run in the bottom of the 9th-How about the walk-off in the 11th?
I agree with you that Minnesota dug themselves into a hole all night. But Cuzzi's call down the line can't be defended. He was right on top of it, didn't look like he got straightlined, and absolutely kicked it big time.
