It is pretty funny that GC didn't go to his partners for the count help. The MLB official scorer should have ended any doubt. I won't feel so bad when I forget to roll a ball or strike on my indicator late in a sleeper next season.
As an aside, I'm not a HSM fan but the bar configuration on his mask is pretty interesting. The design of the bars at the top seems to defeat the idea that a ball will glance off the curved surface of the dome. I'm sure we'll see amateurs wearing simialr models soon enough, if they aren't already.
