We all know the Phillies got a gift when the ump called the shot down the line "fair" yesterday.
Take a listen to how the Marlins announcers reacted. They make their thoughts on the call pretty clear:
I get being mad about the call but that's a little over the top, no?

I don't think its fair to freak out like that. It's really not clear if its fair or foul. It's not where the ball lands, it's whether or not the ball is fair when it goes over the bag. So the shot they showed twice isn't the shot they should be looking at.
ReplyDeleteThat ball was a foul. Look at the replay when it's first hit. The ball is outside of the white line then goes back in over the third base bag then back out.
ReplyDeleteIt's really hard to make a definitive statement that the ball was fair or foul. If this was the NFL and they went to replay they wouldn't have overturned it due to lack of evidence.
ReplyDeleteThat's what makes the Marlins announcers reaction so over the top and hilarious.
