Just curious Mets fans: earlier in the season many of you were screaming about replay.
Do you still wish that a camera had overturned yesterday’s 9th inning call and sent the Mets reeling, or is replay only a good thing when it doesn’t hurt the Mets?
The papers are filled with Mets saying the runner was safe at home. Shhhhh. Keep your mouths shut before we have a Pine Tar game.
Santana must be the greatest teammate ever. He steps up every time this team really needs a win, and he never bitches anyone out when his W total stays the same. Ace.
Yesterday on the radio Eddie point blank referred to Wright as the captain, then qualified it with “well de facto captain anyway” or words to that effect.
I was mentally prepared for no Howie so I was fine with Wayne and Eddie. Even without Howie in there the Mets booth is a million times better than that inexplicable mess across town.
I never wanted replay, but I would like to see MLB dump the lowest-ranked umpires every year and improve training/salaries for minor league umps.
yeah, this basically. Still not for replay. (and btw, that strike call that was way off and sparked the whole thing, so maybe if he gets that right it never gets to a blown call at the plate (which, btw, did Blanco hit his fingers on the way down? mabye he _was_ out!))
The whole inning was a disaster…
the strike non-call which the ump blew…
the check swing ground ball in front of the plate which was called a fair ball (rightfully so) by the home plate ump that was overruled by the 3rd base ump (wtf) and called a foul — when bat never even came close to the ball…
course you won’t hear about any of that in the news… only the tag at the plate and how lucky the Mets are…
give me a break. two badly blown calls against the Mets and 1 bad call in their favor. I still think we’re net minus here!
