That's the second blown call I know of that was upheld incorrectly in the first week. I expect better when they can review the calls. -- (edited) - Krusty Apr 7, 07:16 10
- They didn't call interference on Correa becuase he didn't interfere with the throw. - Will Hunting Apr 7, 07:18 9
  - He was running out of the base line and blocking the throw. I agree that the Betances should have just hit him in the back with the ball. - Krusty Apr 7, 07:21 1
    - I agree with krusty here, the rule needs tweaking. -- nm - groiny Apr 7, 07:22
  - yeah, that is an oversight on the rule, you do not generally try to not throw to the fielder. - groiny Apr 7, 07:19 6
    - I think it was Seaver who's said he wished a runner would do that so he could fire a strike in his back. - Will Hunting Apr 7, 07:20 5
      - I'll agree with that. The rule needs to change if the umps aren't allowed call that interference. -- nm - Krusty Apr 7, 07:22
      - oh, middle infielders are tought to throw into the runners in those cases - groiny Apr 7, 07:21 3
        
        Yup. I was told to hit the runner if he didn't move. It never happened though. They always moved. -- nm - Krusty Apr 7, 07:23 2
        
        no one wants to take a fastball to the face. - groiny Apr 7, 07:24 1
        
        Right on both counts. -- nm - Krusty Apr 7, 07:37
Yay progress!!!! - groiny Apr 7, 07:14
