That was really bad, but the Twins weren't beating the Yanks that year even with a couple runs there.
Well, we will never know will we? Series would've been tied right? Who knows...a team with like 86 wins beating a 100+ win team would be pretty crazy....never saw that before. Oh.....wait. Damnit.

It likely would have been. They still had the bases loaded that inning with no outs and didn't score so I guess we won't but considering the Yankees own the Twins and how good the Yanks were that year, I am pretty comfortable saying the Yanks would have won. So yeah, it happens, but wouldn't have there
WHY IS IT SO FUCKING DIFFICULT TO JUST HAVE AN UMPIRE IN A BOOTH THAT CAN BUZZ DOWN IF THEY GET IT WRONG? FUCK THE STUPID CHALLENGE SYSTEM. JUST GET IT RIGHT.
totally agree. entire thing is so stupid.
the NHL is the only league that has gotten replay right. don't know why these other leagues make it so difficult on themselves.
another option is to just add more umpires to each crew
my buddy norm is showing much restraint for not gloating about his mother fucking d**gers. I am hoping they are peaking too early.

answer: bud selig
this isn't football. only bud selig could screw this up so badly. even people who wanted replay didn't want it like this.
by putting the burden more on the managers than the umps, he's really changing the game a lot more than it needs to be changed. head coaches in the nfl have the benefit of assistants up in the booth alerting them via their headsets, after they've seen the reply, whether to challenge or not. managers in baseball don't have that luxury...yet. this is stupid and, sadly, not surprising. hopefully the owner's are able to tweak it this off season. not optimistic though. :thumbdown:

Dare I say that I don't hate Schilling in the booth? Seems sacrilegious.
I do. He's annoying. I don't like kruk either. His fat guy act is old. We get it, you're a fat ass. Great, now talk about something that matters.
I do like Shulman doing pbp.
Really hoping to see the red sox and pirates choke during the final 6 weeks.
Yeah, I hear you. I just agreed with a lot of what he was saying about the Arod shit last night. Seemed pretty reasonable from someone I expected to be a red ass about it.
