Sunday Night Baseball: On Instant Replay, Carlos Delgado and Joe Morgan
Yankees Chick found this 5/19/2008 on sports.aol.com [flag]
If you're watching the game on ESPN right now, you're doubtlessly aware that Carlos Delgado had a home run stolen from him thanks to baseball's stubborn refusal to accept that there are actual ways of knowing whether balls are fair or foul. And his was fair. Be you a Met fan, Yankee fan or Padre fan, there's no doubt about it after seeing the replay dozens of times. Of course, the umpires ... [link]

Two Theories about Joe Morgan, With Video Explinations
Published 5/20/2008 by ethanator1088 at NESW Sports, The Best Sports News
I have 2 theories about Joe Morgan. They help explain why he says what he says, and does what he does. These are just my theories and they are not law. Yet! If you are new to Joe Morgan, and what are known as Joe Morganisms, let me introduce you to a few starter links. Mr. Morgan has a history of this learned behavior. My theories are not based on random observances. Recent Jose Reyes incident. Recent Foul Ball explinations. How fast does Zumaya pitch the ball? Let’s talk about it. ...

Marchman : Let’s Not Go To The Videotape
Published 5/20/2008 by GC at Can't Stop The Bleeding
The uproar over Carlos Delgado’s 3-run homer-that-wasn’t Sunday evening has predictably led to an outcry over baseball’s lack of instant replay.  The New York Sun’s Tim Marchman insists “anyone who saw the robbery and was sure they saw something beautiful, an idiosyncratic bit of nonsense they couldn’t see in the other, lesser sports, can rest assured the baseball isn’t taking the idea of replay too seriously at all.” The arguments usually made by those who oppose replay — Bud Selig once actually ...

Ump Chokes on Homer Call

sooze posted 5/19/2008 from www.babeslovebaseball.com

Carlos Delgado's shot to left bounced off of the foul pole and land under a fan's seat. A fair ball, a home run. Too bad 3 out of 4 umpires disagreed.

So by now, you've probably all seen the home run hit by Carlos Delgado which was called a foul ball by the umpires in Sunday Night's Mets-Yankee's game. If you haven't, you can see it here. This type of play is the kinda thing that makes me think about the rules and unwritten rules of baseball... READ MORE

Oops, my bad… Umpire blows Delgado homer

Posted 5/19/2008 on Inside The Ballpark - Baseball Humor Blog

Is there any sport that doesn’t require instant replay? It seems to me that just about every sport has gone forward with instant replay and it has helped in many situations. Major League Baseball will probably be the next sport to travel down that path after hearing about this next story. During the fourth inning of the New York Mets and New York Yankees game on Sunday, Carlos ...
Mets Sweep Yankees

Posted 5/19/2008 on Loge 13

How bad is it going for Carlos Delgado? He has to get two hits in the same at-bat just to get on base. I've prepared a little chart for Sunday night's umpiring crew. Perhaps they can brush up on the home run rule before their next game. Nice win by the Mets Sunday night. The important thing is not that they beat the Yankees. Badly. At home. Pummeling their ace in the process. No that is not ...
