YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME

 

[Hopfrog]

Hillary is from Chicago.

Just saying - I've heard things.

 

[bebop242]

He was safe

I'LL TAKE IT.

 

[Voltron64]

Bad call.

 

[Dr_LawyerCop]

I'll take it.

 

[NervousXtian]

I think if it was called safe on the field he'd be safe, but I don't think there's indisputable evidence to overturn that.

Exactly. There was no replay that showed the whole glove the whole time and the hand. If the glove brushed the arm before hitting the chin he was out... no replay showed that completely.. they can't overturn.

I still think he was safe.. but the replay rules need to change.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Protest the game Roberts!!!

How do you change them? It works the same way in every sport. There has to be irrefutable evidence in the replay to over turn a call. If it's close in a slow motion replay then the call stands because there isn't enough evidence. Granted this play was super close and I agree that if it was called safe on the field it probably doesn't get over turned either.

 

[bebop242]

Cubs NEEEEED to do something right here, right now, this inning.

 

[Chuck]

New York messed it up.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Goodell is laughing at MLB

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Protest the game Roberts!!!

I agree.

THROW UP THE P, DAVE!

THROW UP THE P!

 

[Doomsayer]

That was such a BS fucking call. Wow

 

[Mrbob]

I think he was safe but I believe that ended up being a ruling on the field stands call since it was close.

Cubs NEEEEED to do something right here, right now, this inning.

Lol, good luck.

Don't change them.. get the fuck rid of them.

I'm ok with HR calls being reviewed if need be, but nothing else. Baseball has pacing issues already, and this is a pace killer.

BTW, I want the NFL to get of replays too.

 

[NomarTyme]

Urias... love you young man!

WAR JULIO

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Fucking awful Rizzo

 

[bebop242]

Sigh

 

[J2 Cool]

That was....one of the worst swings

 

[Ninja Scooter]

"We've secretly replaced Anthony Rizzo with Jeff Francouer. Let's see if anybody notices..."

 

[Windu]

Rizzo for MVP of the Dodgers / Giants

 

[Line_HTX]

Can never get tired of the strikeout organ.

 

[Chuck]

Leave Rizzo alone! He's precious.

Theo Epstein check cleared.

Hillary is from Chicago.

Just saying - I've heard things.

We got a lot of smart people in MLBGAF. We should look into it.

 

[Head of Vengarl]

That was a bullshit call and everyone knows it. On TV they showed another angle that made it clear he was safe.

 

[Choomp]

Hillary is from Chicago.

Just saying - I've heard things.

These circumstances. They're too much.

 

[Fenderputty]

At the game. The entire crowd was chanting "safe" after the replay. Such a bullshit call

 

[Dr_LawyerCop]

I really wish they'd stop doing in game interviews

 

[chicagocubsfan]

We got a fucking run!!!

 

[Chuck]

That's the worst throw I've ever seen in my life.

 

[Mrbob]

Runs??!?!?!?! What is this wizardry?

 

[HarryDemeanor]

What the fuck Toles.

 

[Fenderputty]

This makes that bullshit call at home sting

 

[NomarTyme]

Terrible throw to home plate. lmao.

 

[Velcro Fly]

Ok can we play Contreras every game Lester isn't pitching? He has hit in limited opportunities in this postseason

 

[Mrbob]

Oh god Heyward is up. Rally crusher.

Ok can we play Contreras every game Lester isn't pitching? He has hit in limited opportunities in this postseason

At least he'll play every day next year. Arietta likes Miggy however at this point I don't think Maddon can keep him out.

 

[KidA Seven]

what a throw

 

[Ninja Scooter]

That throw is what it would look like if Tebow were a left-fielder.

 

[Head of Vengarl]

That's the worst throw I've ever seen in my life.

No kidding. Holy shit that was terrible.

 

[Doomsayer]

That was one of the worst throws I've ever seen.

 

[bebop242]

Yep

Lol that throw. I was yelling at Zobrist turning around third. Lucky.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Oh snaps Baez is warming up.

 

[Dr_LawyerCop]

Oh god Heyward is up. Rally crusher.

Arietta hasn't been good enough to get a personal catcher. We need runs. I like Miggy as a backup.

 

[Mrbob]

Omg Heyward you actually put the bat on the ball.

Oh and lol at the announcer praise Heyward is getting for a ground ball out rbi. That's how bad he is.

Arietta hasn't been good enough to get a personal catcher. We need runs. I like Miggy as a backup.

Agreed.

 

[sf2fanatic]

That momentum swing from a BS call. Cubs got a great spark from it

This is collusion to try and get this to 2-2 and send it back to Chicago.
