I've never seen that before.

Umps need to use common fk'in sense and not let that run score.
Just like they should have used common sense and called Utley out.
Umpiring in sports is Atrocious.

I believe you are wrong on this one. The run definitely should be allowed. The umps got it right. It was also the right decision to review it even though it is not on the list of reviewable plays.

Yep. Choo didn't really interfere. Martin should have made a better throw.

Holy crap.

Might as well start the 30 for 30 about this 7th inning. Wow.

 

[WeAreUCONN]

world war 3 about to breakout in Toronto.

 

[superjohn]

Holy crap.

Agreed on the 30 for 30 on this inning. Worst defensive inning in the hiatory of baseball, it starts with Martin throwing it off the batters bat, to garbage being thrown on the field to 4 errors from the Rangers to Joey Bats hitting a bomb and more beer cans and benches clearing. Never seen anything like it.

 

[BUHusky]

53 minute inning. If you read a recap or even see the highlights it won't do that inning any justice. That was epic.

 

[BugsyCT]

Must-see TV.

 

[TheRealKBuks]

Whos up on their baseball score keeping. Does the batter get an rbi on that play?

Elvis Andrus has to be looking for a hole to climb into right now. He committed, I think, two errors in that inning and was involved in a third. His bat hasn't exactly made up for it, either.

The Texas Rangers, comprised entirely of professional baseball players and playing in their 170th something game, botched three straight routine plays to begin the inning.

It doesn't get much crazier...in the top of the seventh I saw something I've never seen before and it took all of one-half inning for something else I've never seen before to occur.

That's the beauty of baseball sometimes. So many moving parts, and so much opportunity for chaos.

So does it become a 53 for 30?

 

[UConn76]

Crazy....Never seen an inning like it..

Almost like Texas felt bad and let Martin get on base. Next 2 errors, 3 run homer, fights were icing on the cake.

No. It would be the same as a runner scoring on a passed ball or wild pitch while you are at bat. Batter does not get an RBI.

 

[superjohn]

I think Rangers were charged with 3 errors in the 7th but it should have been 4, the ball hit to the second baseman by Josh Donaldson was as routine as it gets. Just an absurd game.

 

[upstater]

Only thing I don't get is that Dale Scott called time/dead ball when Odor was 2/3rd of the way down the line.

In the NFL, if the whistle is blown before a fumble is recovered, that's it. Play is over as soon as the whistle is blown.

But baseball is different?

Yes, they don't wear helmets.

Yes, they don't wear helmets.

They do wear helmets

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

What does this mean? I'm not saying you're wrong, I just don't know what you mean.

It was also the right decision to review it even though it is not on the list of reviewable plays.

 

[Dove]

On July 31 the Jays were in 3rd place in AL East at 53-51. 6 games behind Yanks.

Baseball is very different.

But baseball is different?

Only thing I don't get is orange skins.

With oranges, the skin is much softer, but it is ultimately best, if not necessary, to peel the skin off, as said skin is quite bitter compared to the succulent inside. And the skin is the same color of said inside.

But apples are different?

 

[Fishy]

I didn't see it, but it generated a great article in the Toronto Star....

He stood there, 34 years old, and he watched it go and looked at the pitcher and pursed his lips and flipped his bat aside like a king, like he would never need it again. They may erect a statue of that bat flip.
