2 steps fair would have been much better spot to call, and 2 steps foul would have been even better. But how was he suppposed to know the throw was going to the bare hand side?
When I first saw the play, I thought that same thing. Oddly, two steps foul would have likely given him a better shot at seeing the catch, but how do you know?

GO RAYS :)
I was rooting for Jamie because I have always liked him. He is a gentleman of the first order. I wanted him to hold the record for being the oldest pitcher to have a win in the World Series. So I was disappointed that he didn't get it.

Other than that I'm enjoying having two teams in the series who either haven't been there or haven't been there in a while.

I was just kidding. I too am enjoying the matchup.

Moyer was one of my favorite Mariners--a great pitcher and a class act like Rita said. I'd have to say he and Dobbs are in a better place now...;)

Moyer is a gamer
 
Kudos to Jamie on a great play. You would have to be where the camera was on that play to see that the runner was out..Bang Bang play is soooo tough when you don't have the "pop" of the glove..

Game 4, bottom of first
 
Tag at 3rd is missed - 3U calls safe when runner is clearly out.

Terrible call in the World Series. Classic case when instant replay is needed.

Missed another one . Clearly tagged him right on the azz. NO excuse for missing that one.:mad:

SethPDX Sun Oct 26, 2008 07:49pm
Yeah. Tough going for this crew.

That play never should have been that close, nor should have it happened to begin with. Then the pitcher walks in a run.

And I wouldn't not say he "clearly" tagged him. Yeah, on the 3rd replay with a zoom in shot you could see it. If I were a Rays fan I'd be more pissed that the ball didn't go to second, and a rundown was completely f'd up to begin with.

Oh really? How about live from 3 feet away? No way in hell he shouldn't see that.

I quoted what was important....you calling for a replay. Where does it stop?

Next you'll want replay on a checked swing......Hit by pitch...tiny hitch in a stretch.....first basemans foot in foul territory....

Where does it stop? You tell me...
