    Know your dodgers summary: Players who are good: Kershaw Grienke Later

    @ShaneVictorino: Always called him one of my toughest teammates...Utley showing why I always called him a winner!!! #MLBPlayoffs

    Let's go Harvey. Shut up all the critics.

    One of the things Torre said was that since the ump called him out then Utley doesn't have to touch the bag, like we all guessed. Then he followed it up with this gem: "If a fielder who happened to have the ball had tagged Utley as he jogged back to the dugout then he's out." Now he may have misunderstood what his lackey tried to teach him, but the fact that he didn't see that that doesn't make sense is alarming. Not surprising, but alarming.

    Torre and his lackey making no sense. They think they are, but they're not.

Just that, yeah, the dude got hisself a concussion there. He hit his head pretty good. I see the contact there with Tejada's leg and Utley, but I have to say I'm amazed he suffered a fracture from that. Remember when he got hurt doing a flip catch near the end of a season and it ended up it was his leg he broke. That's weird. Brittle legs. Nah his leg was planted when the douchenozzle crashed into him with his legs, I don't think Tejada's particularly fragile.

    I was just wondering didn't they make it illegal to crash into the catcher

    Is it me or is Cal coming off like a moron?

Colon didn't need to come out after one batter. I'm not nearly as impressed with Terry Collins as the press seems to be. Taking Colon out was a really odd. Why is he out there in the first place if you're just going to yank him like that.

Kelly Johnson played a little shortstop this year, but if I recall correctly, nobody hit the ball to him. David Wright has played shortstop too, but I wouldn't want to put him there at this point in his career. They can activate Eric Campbell. He's played 6 innings in the big leagues at shortstop. Agree the options are thin. Terry already got Uribe hurt fucking around with positions.

    Frayed Knot wrote: The thing about that play is that it could have occurred exactly as it did and been called: - as no outs (the way it was) - as one out (the original call) - or as two outs (had Utley been flagged for an illegal slide and the batter/runner been thumbed on account of it) It's gross.

But they've got to be fucking kidding me if they're going to reverse it on any of the angles that we saw. But the problem is that he didn't run off the field abandoning the base. He never attained it. But the logic (I'm guessing) is that if the play was "correctly" called in the first place that Utley would have touched up instead of leaving the field like he was told. It's just another example of the fallacy that replay can retroactively fix incorrect calls to what supposed to happen. They're saying this too. Of course, if he hadn't called him out Tejada might have crawled over there and tagged him out. Which is why I threw in the second sentence in my reply. -- "It's just another example of the fallacy that replay can retroactively fix incorrect calls to what supposed to happen." Yeah I gotcha. I agree
