Jesus Christ, fellas. 19 innings? Goddamn.
Still, Fisher..imagine this being in the ALDS...and you lost.
If this were a playoff game, I'd deal with 10 innings of Jason Johnson to win.
Well, that was a marathon of a game. I'm sure every interested party was glad when it was over, regardless of the outcome. I would've been disappointed with a loss, but even if the White Sox had lost, I'd've still been glad that the game was over.
The Bad from this game: One team had to lose.
The Good from it: My team won.
I was just watching the highlights on SportsCenter and the Sox should of won that game. Dye, didn't touch 3rd going to 2nd. White Sox player running to 2nd interfered with a double play.
One crazy game.
Which Sox are you talking about? :laugh:Quote:

It appears as though Dye rounded the base, although if he did, it was unintentional, and was noticed by no one on the field, and he didn't tag 3rd on his way back to 2nd. The Red Sox did not appeal.Quote:

Crede shoots a ball to RF which is caught by Trot Nixon (it was a tough play). Now, Dye rounded third base when he was originally at second. Whether he tagged from second or was running off the hit of the bat I don't know. However, he saw that Gload wasn't running home, rather stuck between home and third and going back to third to tag up. So Dye ran back, but he didn't tag third base on the way back. So technically, he missed a base and I think, if the Sox appealed, he would have been out. He didn't appeal and I made this sound really confusing, because it was.
The slide was questionable. He was out of the baseline, but I think he could he touched the bag with his hand. However, my qualm was that he didn't slide til the very end, and that he couldn't have gotten to the base. Still, the ump made the right no-call there
OK, Dam explained it infinitely better than me. Although I am 99% sure he rounded the base and was looking home, and then saw Gload, so he just undercut the base going back to second. Of course, the RSox failed to appeal, so it doesn't matter
ok, that makes more sense...I figured it must have been a case where he failed to tag going back, but without "back" I wasn't sure if that was what he meant or if he got it backwards and meant he missed 2nd going to 3rd...oh well.
