That's tough, and awfully close.
It's not a huge obvious turn, but it's there nonetheless. Alvarez approaches and passes first base with obvious intent towards second before he straightens out. Good call.
That is awfully close but a good call.
I think its a good call. Obviously the nationals noticed it otherwise they wouldn't of bothered to tag him.
Absolutely that is a move towards 2B, especially at the MLB level
Paul Emmel should get the most improved award I know it's early but he has how many ejections um zero!!! I'm not surprised that mlb moved emmel to good and experienced. Along side dreck man who does not eject anyone and meals also I think with no ejections darling meals dreck man and emmel to good and experienced meals also in and out, emmel now with Welke crew, Welke now out vaca maybe, Everett is cc I guess by seniority by a half a year of experienced should be emmel being cc. Also that crew did so well they are umpiring six games in Toronto? LAD and now HOU? Maybe that crew will go back to Boston to umpire ppd game 1 of four with Seattle in town the very next day, just a guess on that?
PPD of TB last game TB SEA SEA SEA
Correct me if I'm wrong anyone ? But is this a similar play from darling and posada BAL 9/6/11. (4:03 rain delay). Drake, Darling, dreckman, Emmel.
Since when do "no ejections = good umpire"?
Timmy Timmons is top notch...
This is a wild guess but when the Red Sox play the Mariners at Fenway they always seem to have Kellogg, Cooper, Schreiber, Fairchild, with Carlson and Timmons in the mix as well. They haven't had a Sox game since May and Mariners since June.
Darling and Meals are garbage.
Darling's a consummate professional. Not a fan of Meals.
Diaz had the plate tonight in Baltimore. He was far from good. Laz is just not a good umpire, lets be honest.
That's not a good call. Watch closely - Alvarez begins to make a motion as if he's going to round 1B BEFORE he gets to the bag. As he's about to stride to the bag, he realizes the ball is still in the INF and straightens out to just cruise to a stop a few strides beyond the bag. Any indication of an attempt to advance happens before he actually touches 1B. Wrong call - incorrect.
This whole post makes my head hurt.
You do realize that when every sentence is either a fragment or a run-on it makes your post make no sense, right? Did you attend elementary school?
His first step past first base is made with his body angled towards second base and with some motion towards second base while at a position consistent with a runner rounding first base with intent to go towards second. Therefore he is not running straight through the base but instead attempting to run towards second base, removing the applicability of 7.08(c) Exemption and instead making him subject to an out call per 7.08(j).
Diaz and Timmons have both been awful in their plate duties in Baltimore. Timmons ejected Ortiz for arguing a pitch that was most certainly high.
Las Diaz and Tim Timmons overrrrrated
