Title: What is it about the Lady Vols in the WCWS finals? Post by: Creek Walker on June 04, 2013, 06:07:03 EDT You just KNOW that an ump is gonna blow a tag call. 2007, now 2013. Oklahoma's tying run was clearly out at 3rd in the bottom of the 11th. This should be 1-0 Tennessee right now. :frown:

Not to mention that the home plate ump missed an obvious strike 3 on the same batter a couple pitches before. OU is good enough that they don't need any help- but with the partisan crowd, they're going to get it. :hurl:

Post by: CornFromAJar on June 04, 2013, 07:36:23 EDT Not to excuse the blown calls, especially the missed third strike, but why was the outfield drawn in with 2 outs? If the outfielders would have been at normal depth, it's a fly out and not a "triple."

But folks, the error on first base that allowed the first base runner lost the game..period. That catch was 2 outs and nobody on base.....must catch popups, even if the wind is blowing it around!!

If the outfielders would have been at normal depth, it's a fly out and not a "triple." Agree with the blown calls, and also this. Wide open gap out there. :frown: |
