It was a pretty straight throw that cleared the runner and was flat-out missed by Rollins. It was a crappy catch, if anything.

And it was one of the best no-calls I think I have ever seen. What a play!

Lifelong Phillies fan, and I agree. Utley could've drawn interference by standing up, but didn't.

My phrase is this: "To have interference, the runner had to have interfered." How did R1 actually interfere with the play?

In a FED football game, that would be a 15 yard personal foul for hurdling.

He is also out for hurdling a fielder not lying on the ground in FED baseball as well.

Yes, but I was shooting for something a bit more obscure.

Sorry that I'm late to the game but Rich it looks to me like Utley was trying to drawl contact. He almost looks as though he attempts to move up and back after fielding the ball to draw contact. He didn't draw the contact and decided to flip the ball to get the out.

Can't believe it took me this long to get on the baseball side of the forum to see the play. I'm losing it.

I didn't even know he spoke with a southern accent!

Sorry to get off topic, but I could go for one of those jackets they have in the video clip - a Majestic full zip ThermaBase jacket, the umpire version of the jackets you see the coaches wearing. I have a Cubs jacket just like it and it's very nice, and pretty warm.

Brian, thanks for hijacking the thread. It is now infinitely more interesting.
