Play at first


May 15, 2013, 9:56 AM

Does anyone have a photo of the play at first in the bottom of the 8th?

I was midway down 1st base line and generally stay out of definitive statements about close plays. This one didn't look close to me. I'd love to see it again.

One of the guys w/ the $6k cameras w/ lenses a foot long walked by and spoke to someone beside me and said he'd seen the replay and Duggar (right?) was safe by 2-3 feet. (I'm not sure *HE* had the shot though.)

Are there stills or video available?

Don't have a link but the video replay showed it wasn't even close. At least a half step ahead of the ball. First base ump obviously didn't get a good look and went with the out call. Seems to me first base has been phoning that call in more than usual this year - or maybe its just we can finally watch so many games I'm more aware how inept college officiating is. Thankfully it didn't end up mattering.

Ump was zoned out on that call. Probably wondering who got voted off of DWTS.

When I first saw the play

My only thought was man, he must've missed the bag or something. I mean, he was clearly to the bag before the throw, so he must've missed the bag.

But on every subsequent replay it was clear t was just a simple blown call, and bad bad one.

of his mind for calling him out.

Duggar was clearly safe. The ump completely blew the call***

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
