Jeter was returned to second.
You can kinda see why he tried it, though. If he’s tagged, he’s out. If he interferes and caught, he’s out. Might as well see if you can get away with the interference.
Pretty sure it was first. In any case, it doesn’t matter because they didn’t get another hit anyway.
No, Jeter was returned to first.
It was second.
Come on Foulke, don’t fuck it up.
He knew what he tried to do, and it sure as hell wasn’t even close to a normal running motion. When this game is over, you know they’re going to watch the tapes, and I hope he gets his ass reamed by every one of his teammates. Sometimes you try to get away with shit, that’s the game, that’s the rivalry, etc. But coming out to lie to the umps? :wally :mad:
I think the riot police are a bit much.
He grabbed a pitchers arm. You don’t fuck with another player’s career like that.
A-Rod wouldn’t have done that before he joined the Yankees. Also, the Joe Torre of five years ago wouldn’t have tolerated it. The Yankees are so embarassed to have let a 3-0 lead get away from them, they’ve abandoned all pretense of good sportsmanship.
If the Yankees lose this, baseball wins.
Perhaps, but when you’re caught trying to cheat you should take it like a man instead of whining about it like a spoiled brat. And the fans, well, let’s just say that they should evacuate the women and children and start throwing stuff back.
Now the police are leaving the field. What happened? The fans promise to be good or the baseball commissioner begged them to stop with the negative image-making?
Yeah, guys, let’s pull the riot police off the field now that the Red Sox are fielding. Not like they’d need protection from a stadium full of drunken bloodthirsty crazies who are whipped into a frenzy.
Oh, I agree. My beef wasn’t with the interference, but with the whining about it and lying to the umps.
After he was initially called safe.
I’m not defending A-Rod or the Yanks, but I think this is a rather pertinent detail.
Why is it pertinent that the first place ump didn’t see the interference? It’s on the replay, so there’s nothing in dispute.
Do the umps even look at the instant replay, or do they just conference?
Rules don’t even allow for the use of instant replay, technically. It has to be a conference amongst the umpires if there’s a need.
They don’t have the thing with the hood like they do in football. They get together and discuss it. Sometimes I think they might get calls from the booth. In this case, the home plate umpire must have seen it, so I don’t know if that was the case.
As a Mariners fan, I’d like to believe that. But I’ve never trusted Rodriguez to do anything that wasn’t all about Rodriguez.
woohoo!!!
:d hot Damn!!! :d
Whoo Hooooo!!!
Fuck the Yankees!
