and again an umpire blows two calls

wtf is up with the umpires this year?
In defense of one of the plays. It was a bang bang play. That was really quick and he had to call what he saw, initially I thought that Howard caught it as well. And that play was against the Yankees btw, lol.

I don't care that it was against the Yankees, there's been plenty of blown calls against them this playoffs. What I care about is the fact that the Umps blow big time in this years playoffs.

Meh, it happens. They will probably have instant replay more frequently for plays next year.

How will Philly sound? "Loud and rowdy," says Jimmy Rollins. How was New York? "One big cheer, and that was on a home run. Other than that ..." Rollins said, then just shrugged.
Yup, sounds just like a Yanks crowd. Yanks have game 3 though, Pettitte vs Hamels, huge advantage Yanks.

Bases loaded walk drawn by Rollins and now a sacrifice fly by Victorino. 3-0 Phils, 2 outs. Ouch.

Unbiased opinion: Actually don't think A-Rod should have the home run. The replay should be conclusive that the ball would have gone out anyway and I didn't see that in the replays they showed.

But, hey, I'm not an ump right? lol

baggs, it was clearly a HR


lol Cole sucked....AGAIN

thats what philly gets. he's been ass all season. the playoffs too.
dude had a 4.32 ERA. i know ERA isnt the greatest stat to test a pitcher, but Happ's was 2.93

what does he have to do to start?

f the phils for being so stupid. this is what they get

Major flaw in your argument, cheato...

Free Agency didn't exist in MLB up until 77... Since then, Yanks have won 6 WS (out of 32)... Correct me if my math is wrong, but 6/32 isn't 25%, is it?

But then again, I wouldn't expect you to know that tidbit about free agency, considering your obviously limited knowledge of the sport (or any sport for that matter) outside of your little bubble in Ohio.

Which also shows how terrible the management is in New York, if they can't win with unlimited resources.

But you and DH34 are both alike, you resort to insults to try and prove a point. Nice job.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't my point proven in the line before the insult?

We're all out of kleenex here..
