This is the moment that we'll look back on when baseball has instant replay for all scoring plays. http://yfrog.com/khss0caj He was called safe and the Braves won the game |

I can't believe that guy was called safe - and the ump was so emphatic about it afterward. The Braves runner didn't even try to act safe. This is also a case where I support public disclosure of umpire disciplinary action. Dude obviously needs to take a break for a few games. |

Jerry Meals' name is now mud in Pittsburgh. He's the umpire who made the Don Denkinger-like call to end a 19 inning marathon last night at Turner Field. The Braves' Julio Lugo was clearly out, yet was ruled safe to end the ballgame...What's the deal? |

The ump took an ED drug around the 9th inning, hoping to be in the throes of passion an hour or 2 later. When the game went long, he panicked, thinking the potency of what he took would wear off, and he wouldn't be able to achieve full arousal. In an effort to save his woodrow capabilities for later, he blew the call so that he could take care of business back at the hotel. I have no proof that's what happened. It's just a theory. |

Ed, you think MLB's poor excuse for a "Commissioner", Allan H. Selig, would explore use of replay for plays like the one that ended that 19-inning marathon? |

He only has one view of the play. Actual quote from Ed Farmer during Sox game today. |

I'm old enough to remember when the Braves & Mets played quite a marathon in 1985. It was a game that ended at 2:30a or so (ET) at the old "Launching Pad", but I thought the Mets ended up winning that game... |
