Of course, ex-Phillie Blanton bails the Dodgers out again. Geez, How much help do you guys need? Would another bomb by Chooch do it? Does Utley have to take someone out? I could make a call....

Why do they put names like Rzepczynski and Samardzija on a jersey...does it matter?

Not only did you not get help from another umpire but your call was wrong

Wow.

It was a close-to 50/50 call, but you GOTTA get help there. You don't make that call yourself.

Not sure what can be done, but I think MLB needs to at least address the checked swing issue this off season. Let's at least get an actual definition on the books... Finally.

I'll file this under "wishful thinking"

Harper's last PA against Kershaw was phenomenal, and a phenomenal duel.

duel. Would watch 10 more times.

On a side note, Daniel Murphy is a guy I'd be terrified of if I were a manager. Dude hardly ever strikes out, you can't really erase him or shift him. Has a wRC+ about the same as Josh Donaldson. Best contact hitter in the game today.

And I'm sure it will make it just as clear as the "catch rule" in the NFL

Yep that was the issue. Home plate ump did not choose to get help from the ump at 1B

well, IF the Home Plate ump is sure then why should he check?
