Really? What to bet that Angel Hernandez calls a balk and ejects someone?

Two solid-looking, entertaining crews it looks like.

Will they have 6 different guys for the WS, or will those six come from these selected for the CS games?

Similar to the NFL, the WS crew come from the Divison Series pool...

"I think I would have to bang that one though instead of the way Davis did it but that's his style."

Why? Is he 'more' out if you do the 'Big Bang.'

I think you'll notice that most professional umpires have gone to the "less is more" signalling system on close plays.

Not even that close.

You can't say it wasn't that close. It WAS that close. He was still out, but it was a very close play -- 6 to 8 inches moving about 5 feet a second. That's pretty close.

Excellent job by the young man during the 7th inning strech preforming "God Bless America"!

It was a real shame seeing both pitchers squeezed by Cousins last night. Derryl must think the knee is mid-thigh.

[Welpe]

You're right, he was squeezing them at the knees but at least he was consistent.

Except pitchers like Halladay and Lincecum live on that dart at the knee. Take that away from them and they become very average.

I thought he gave a lot more on the outside early in the game, too.

I like a batter's reaction after a high curve was called a strike. Replay shows the ball landing in the mitt low in the zone. The announcer stated it curved into the zone after it passed the plate (Chuckles). Cousins was money on that outside strike late in the game w/ intense pressure on each pitch. It was a good game.

Phillies lose the NL series on the same call Phillies pitcher Roy Halladay has been calling strikes all season.
