I guess MLB had to create drama somehow...
 
Pissed that both Boston and New York are out of the ALCS, MLB has to create some drama somehow. I guess the umps handing the White Sox game 2 is how they drive viewers for the rest of this series. Unbelievable...

Worst call I've seen in pro sports ever. Absolutely the worst call. Ump was wrong, and he rung him up, twice. AJ Piers was walking off the field. Ridiculous.

It even turned my Angels +1.5 bet into a winner and I still think it was beyond awful.

LAA is a mature team though, look for them to get it back next game out.

There have been two NBA games that I can think of that were worse, both involving the Lakers (one vs. Sac. and the other vs. Minn.). In those games, the officials made terrible call after terrible call. In this game there was only one, but it was pretty attrocious. Certainly the worst ever in baseball.

I took the LAA moneyline. Wish I had took the spread.

Even still, I'm upset with this call. I was LITERALLY sick to my stomach. No, I didn't bet that much on the game, but to know it was decided on such an OBVIOUS missed call made me sick.

nope...The Tuck Rule...IT's taken me too long to come to the conclusion that the NFL just makes up rules as it goes. I saw 3 instant replays this weekend in the NFL that were just plain wrong. I saw almost as many in college. Very weird.

Bad call, def not worst call ever, but still a bad call. Although no matter what, still would have been extra innings. Can't say angels would have won without that call.

It's true we don't know who would have won, but the Angels shouldn't have to beat both the Sox and the umps to get a win--it's just a terrible way for a game to end.

On the bright side, it makes my prop for the series of Number of Games Decided by Horrible Ump Calls OVER 0.5 into a winner! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
