OK. My definitive HO is that I dunno.
From the front, to me, it clearly bounced on the webbing of the glove. To me, from the side, it clearly bounced in front of the glove. (The announcers went with webbing.)

The bottom line is that the ump didn't call him out, so SD's right-- ya gotta tag.

Flying dirt - its presence confirms, but its absence doesn't disprove hitting the ground


If the ball hits the dirt going that fast, the dirt WILL be seen!

Paul should indeed have tagged the runner just to be safe, but he had no reason to bluff; he could have easily tagged the runner. He just assumed the play was over.

And Eddings shouldn't call a batter out until he's out.

Cubs? What is that? oh, maybe some minor league team? Honestly I've never heard of any cubs baseball team. I did notice that there is a big gathering of upper class pretend-a-fans that get together to bask in the sun on the North side of the city. I always thought they were exchanging manicurists' phone numbers or something.

Just kidding Chasbo. To those who don't know, Sox fans do not like The Chubs. Chub fans don't like the Sox until they start winning and then they all jump on the "I've been a Sox fan since..." bandwagon.


Sorry Chasbo.

Go Sox!

Well, if the Cards make it they will no doubt stick with tradition and snatch defeat from the jaws of victory!

No need to aplogize Dragon. No offense taken. You are right on all counts but I must tell you that I am a South Sider. Born and raised around Midway Airport. Lived around Wrigley in the 80's but now I'm back South, way South Subs. I am not one of those fly by night fans. If you are a Cubs fan you don't like the Sox but I'd lose every interleague game to the Sox if the Cubbies could down the Cardinals and Astros. If you are a Bears fan you don't like The Pack. It's simple. I know Baseball. The Sox have the golden touch this year and it looks like their pitching is good enough.

"Amazingly, it was the first time since LCS play began in 1969 that one team produced four complete games from its starting pitchers. The last time it happened in the postseason was in 1956, when five Yankees -- Whitey Ford, Tom Sturdivant, Don Larsen, Bob Turley and Johnny Kucks -- turned the trick against the Brooklyn Dodgers. Larsen's was also a perfect game."

It was almost five complete games; the bullpen only pitched 2/3 of an inning in game one. That's remarkable in this day and age. Back in 1956 it was a LOT more commonplace for pitchers to pitch complete games.
