World Series Game Four Discussion Thread, Yankees at Phillies, November 1, 2009
New York Yankees at Philadelphia Phillies, Nov 1, 2009 8:20 PM EST
The Phillies' backs aren't to the wall, but it's kinda closeish. After last night's upsetting, soggy loss, the Phillies look to even things up against the Yankees tonight behind Joe Blanton. They'll attempt to do so against CC Sabathia, against whom the Phillies have secured two victories in the last two postseasons.
More improbable things have happened. Like Joe Blanton hitting a home run.
A win tonight sends this back to New York. Huzzah!
Discuss the game below.

Hence my statement about the ‘evil’ human race – i get the plot – it’s not exactly original – cameron going for special effects – this is pretty much the plot of battle for terra.
But the whole ‘defenseless underdogs’ metaphor is irritating, also, trying to pimp your movie by interspersing it through the opening is just dumb

He’s had a hard season and too many people over analyzing it incorrectly – he said it in frustration and it’s blown out of proportion – it’s FOX – if they don’t exaggerate – they don’t know what to do.

I don’t really think Cole Hamels hitting A-Rod had anything to do with him “breaking out” last night.

If howard goes back to tag before the guy makes the throw to first – he gets tagged and the ump then believes he missed home and called him out – if the ump calls you safe – don’t give him reason to doubt

Homeplate ump
really is blind tonight, in every facet of the game
by David S. Cohen on Nov 1, 2009 9:40 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
But what’s weird is that he saw it… then promptly did nothing. That was weird.
Anyone know exactly what the rule is? I mean, should Howard just be out when he steps into the dugout?
by PhillyFriar on Nov 1, 2009 9:41 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
No. He’s not out unless he’s tagged. He was never tagged.
“Safe” is merely the absence of a putout. It’s technically not a run until the next pitch is thrown.
by Jay on Nov 1, 2009 9:42 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Called safe
So the only remedy is for the Yanks to argue/appeal. If the home plate ump never called him safe, then I guess he’d be out when he goes off the field
by David S. Cohen on Nov 1, 2009 9:42 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
No, you have to think of it like an appeal on a tag-up play. If the defense doesn’t at leastt make the appeal, then the player is simply “safe” and allowed to advance as he already has.
by Jay on Nov 1, 2009 9:44 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
I mean, the runner has to be somewhere. He’s not on the bases. He’s not out. He’s not “at” home plate. He’s beyond home plate, run scores.
by Jay on Nov 1, 2009 9:47 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Or, he’s off the field of play and called out.
by David S. Cohen on Nov 1, 2009 9:47 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Never happens. Again, this is like the tag-up play. If the defense doesn’t make the put-out, then the runner gets away with it.
by Jay on Nov 1, 2009 9:49 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
I don’t know about that. Umps often wait to make a call until the guy touches home if he’s obviously missed it. There’s a reason for that, I would think – no run until the call is made.
by David S. Cohen on Nov 1, 2009 9:47 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
I can tell you definitively, if the ump hasn’t called it, and the defense takes the ball and runs over to the dugout and tags Howard, he’s out. You’ve never seen a guy cross home plate without it eventually being ruled an out or a run.
