Joe Morgan the ex-umpire

Speaking of this game... i'm watching it in the bottom of the 6th- cardinal's pitcher is definitely double-setting big time.

It's apparent here that balks in the MLB are being enforced as strictly as travelling in the NBA- they are never called!

You beat me to it, Steve.

I was watching when he said that and I couldn't believe it. I mean, has that EVER been a mechanic?

As for the game....way to blow it, Redbirds.

Hey, I like it !

That's the way to keep it simple Joe !

Now, how many bases do I rotate ?

[tjones1]

Good rotation... I'll bet Joe brought this "mechanic" up everytime in his pre-game and had to explain it.

It'd be interesting to see some of Joe's old partners come out of the woodwork.

In the Playoffs last year, Bartolo Colon never(I may be exaggerating) stopped at all with runners on. It was INCREDIBLE.
