Worst called game in history

I can actually see that. When you are so mad, words escape you even though you had a full plan on what you wanted to ask/say. Unlike Dalyn who never has writer's block, I have it lot when writing stories.

I dont blame the players for not swinging at those balls. If they swung at them they would have missed and at best fouled them off. Then all people would say is that the Braves hitters were at fault for swinging at bad pitches because we would not have known publicly if they would have been called strikes. After the game Gregg tried to say that he was surprised he was asked about it after the game because he didnt eject anyone and no one threw their helmet.

What really gets me about umpires is that when they introduced Questec umpires started calling the correct strike zone so they didnt rate too badly. That tells me that the umpires are deliberately miscalling the strike zone. If they refuse to call the correct strike zone they should be fired. They should just have Questec call the balls and strikes live with the operator relaying it to the home plate umpire. The homeplate ump could still have a job, heck it would be an easier job. Its absolutely unacceptable to let umpires miscall the most basic part of the game when we have a better way.

I hated Questect because Glavine and Maddux suffered because of it.

I just spitted up some fine Chardonnay after getting it. Nice bat.

You are welcome. I love Calvin & Hobbes.

This was a game that I never got to see on TV, and thank GOD for that. I would have destroyed my television.

Pretty much. I was at college and watching the scoreboard in the library computer room. Had I seen it live, I'd have done something rash.
