Braves vs Pirates close call...you be the judge
This was a 19 inning baseball game (yes NINETEEN innings). runners on second and third, bottom of the 19th inning; tied 3-3; 2 outs. If the braves score, they win.
Batter hits a grounder to third, runner advances and "looks" like he is tagged out at home which would have cause the game to go another inning. Ump calls him safe.
From the camera behind the catcher and runner, it clearly looks like the runner is out. but at the 1:28 mark, it seems as though the glove misses the runners leg.
you be the judge

Re: Braves vs Pirates close call...you be the judge
Im for the braves but it definitely looked like the tip of the glove got his leg, im voting out. Yep i just watched it again, at the end of the video you can he his pants leg ripple when the glove goes over it, hes out. Tough call tho.

Re: Braves vs Pirates close call...you be the judge
the runner is out. and doesn't the runner touch the catcher himself, thus making him out also?

no, the runner has to be tagged. just holding the ball does not make the whole players body "hot". The glove holding the ball or a hand holding the ball has to touch the runner

Re: Braves vs Pirates close call...you be the judge
I voted out, but upon further looking of the vid, it looks like the glove was just a cnut hair above the pants. Its hard to tell from that angle. The emprier was there and had the best veiw. He may have been safe

Close call indeed. Hard to tell, need slow mo & better quality.

The pants rippling could have been caused by them hitting the ground or the sudden stop.

Re: Braves vs Pirates close call...you be the judge
I would like to believe the ump got the call right. I have seen before where it looks obvious that the runner was tagged at the leg and missed. With that being said, I voted "out". The announcers even commented that, "The runner never made it home" (originally of course). I think he was out.

Re: Braves vs Pirates close call...you be the judge
The ump was tired and wanted to go home.He forgot the first rule of umpiring "if the ball beats the runner,You'reOUT always

Re: Braves vs Pirates close call...you be the judge
Thats the worst call of the year and i have seen a lot of bad calls but that one was so off it wasn't even funny i think that ump just wanted to get home.
