Watch out for Berniedoodles and Trumpers
Based on the rule, they called the play right.
What can be debated, was if the rule is a fair rule. In this case, it looks like middlebrooks falls down, he falls down facing towards second base, not close to the 3rd base line. Then, as he tries to get up, he is pushed down by the cards player who tries to run far inside the path.
The Cards runner ran wrong, but under the rule, and regardless of middlebrooks being away from the path, w/o intent, it is called.
Sox to me did not deserve this call. BUT, they also did not deserve John Farrell's poor management calls late in the game. He truly blew obvious decisions. If he had loaded the bases it was a innng ending double play. And why Bat workman.
JOHN F, you got an F tonite, as did the MLB for not revising that rule.
