soupcan Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2008 Posted April 5, 2008 How do McCarver and Buck pose the question that Pagan should be out because he passed Church, when the only reason he passed Church is because the umpires blew the call?Seems pretty stupid to me.

(just venting)Water under the bridge at this point.
soupcan Old-Timey Member Posted April 5, 2008 Posted April 5, 2008 That ball was so obviously not caught - you can't fault Pagan for seeing that and continuing.
