4/17 vs Guardians

[Al Zarilla]

I thought he made contact too. If he turned to fair territory after crossing the base, however, he's vulnerable to getting tagged.

I thought that was it (turned toward second) but one of the umps pointed to the bag as if he missed it

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

I thought he was out because he turned toward fair territory and not toward foul territory after passing the bag. Missing the bag entirely is even dumber.

Feels like he turned because there was a guy in his way. Just split second reaction. Really weird play that I think they got wrong.

I thought he turned in real time. Maybe I’m wrong.

 

[simplicio]

"Defensive replacements"

Bwhahahahahahahahaha

They're pretty offensive, if you ask me.

And not even replacement level.

 

[scotian1]

Any chance he can go nine, do not want to see Jansen.

 

[E5 Yaz]

It won't matter. Houck has this

 

[Sad Sam Jones]

Cleveland's broadcast said he was awarded a hit… the gamecast I have up says no hit. That would determine what he was called out for – you can't get a hit if you never touched first base.

 

[mauidano]

Not as long as he doesn't make a move towards second base.

Will have to go back and look at it but I feel the ump called him out upon being tagged when he stopped running.

 

[Dewey's 'stache]

I don’t think I missed a base in my Illustrious 4 year little league career. Hamilton has missed two in a week. It’s hard to grasp how that can happen at this level.
PS. I was pretty crappy and definitely stretched my skills in my 4th and final year. I didn’t hit much better than Bobby is currently, but I at least touched the base when I did

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

CGSO are the new no-no's.

 

[Pedroia's Itchy Nose]

Houck is making them look like absolute dunces

 

[brandonchristensen]

Unbelievable performance

Let him finish it.

Not in this particular case

 

[Rovin Romine]

86 through 8.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

This is a joy to watch.

 

[JCizzle]

Houck is making them look like absolute dunces

That last strikeout was a thing of beauty

 

[ngruz25]

Oh my. We’re on CGSO watch. When was the last time that happened!?

 

[Murby]

Houck should get the 9th. Easy call.

 

[mauidano]

Don't fuck it up Cora. Houck better have his ass on the mound for the 9th

 

[Moviegoer]

Go for the complete game. He'll have an extra day of rest with the off day Monday.

 

[ObstructedView]

No play-by-play with this defense should ever include the word “routine.”

Houck dealing. If Kenley comes in I quit.

 

[Curt S Loew]

CGSO are the new no-no's.

Is it okay to mention them, though?

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Let him go for the CG shutout.

 

[Al Zarilla]

I think Hamilton was out because he turned slightly toward second. I did that once and was called out - in 5th grade.

That’s pretty mean to a fifth grader.

 

[absintheofmalaise]

Will have to go back and look at it but I feel the ump called him out upon being tagged when he stopped running.

That's what I saw too.

Bu after he turned towards fair territory.

 

[Sprowl]

Only by acronyms.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Rafaela, yikes.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Another run here would be sweet

 

[shawnrbu]

Rafaela, yikes.

8 more years!

 

[simplicio]

Wacha in 2022

 

[Sprowl]

Run, 'ran, run!

 

[mauidano]

CGSO are the new no-no's.

Maybe they need their own "Psssssssst..." thread like when there is a no hitter in play.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Oh my. We’re on CGSO watch. When was the last time that happened!?

Cy Young 1907.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Swap Devers with Wong.

A what?

That must have been a Monaco game because DOB is acting like he hasn’t seen one in years.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

The call on the field had to be that he did not touch first base. It cannot be interference because the ball did not hit him. Being in fair territory is not enough to be called out after overruning first base. You have to make an attempt toward second base, which he never did. Even a slight attempt will be enough, but he didn't. Gotta just be a put out for not touching the base, which looked close on replay.

Just terrible luck that the guy backing up the throw was right there and made the attempt to tag him.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Dumb

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

8 more years!

Good thing we didn’t wait, imagine how high the price would have been.

 

[ObstructedView]

Raffy is hard to watch right now.

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Devers dancing around on the hurt knee scares me.

 

[joe dokes]

That was my thought. Instead of peeling off (like a normal little leaguer) he kept running in fair territory.
It will be interesting if anyone asks the ump after the game.

The rule is "immediately return to the base." It does not matter which side of the line he's on as long as he doesn't make a move toward second.

 

[patinorange]

Defense. So annoying.

 

[scotian1]

Why isn't the hitting coach getting Devers to cut down his swing and go opposite field.

 

[JOBU]

This game may close in under 2 hours

 

[brandonchristensen]

This game may close in under 2 hours

I hope so.

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

Devers looked awkward there, as if his knee was hurting.

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Why isn't the hitting coach getting Devers to cut down his swing and go opposite field.

I’m not sure our hitting coach does much coaching.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Yeah, the ump also pointed at the base. The call was that he didn't touch, I feel pretty certain.
