lol...the upper Deck and the Lower Bowl seem to have the worst fans...

my bad...CANadians are usually pretty passive (go to a Maple Laughs game)...

and banned from the Rogers Centre...it happens in most other stadiums/arenas...

It's w/e, I can understand being upset over that call if you were drunk in the stands, especially if you don't follow baseball all the time, you don't see that shit on a daily, even yearly basis. Was one of the oddest things I've ever seen and I've been an avid fan since I was about 6. I already explained earlier, my rustling was due to Bautista and Bautista only, I hate that guy.

It's hard to have passion when you're a Leafs fan... I've been one for 20 years.

where did Bautista touch you...and as to the rule Dale Scott screwed it up (14 years a crew chief)...and if Choo's bat was out of the batters box on any plane, then it is a dead ball...MLB looking at hundreds of angles would be ridiculous...

I only go once every few years to a game...it is too hard to watch the mess on the ice...if this "rebuild" doesn't work, them I am out...

He didn't touch me lmao just irks me the same way Big Sloppy does, pimp everything and they have a sense that they feel entitled. No biggie, if he wasn't on your team I'd probably root for you guys, I like Price and Tulo a lot.

 

[RedCansLoom16]

Russel Martin more than made up for it with his lane change running to 2nd to obstruct Andrus' view of the throw. Not a lot of people noticed that

I mean that's day one base running. Martin got bailed out big time by the Texas defense and Bautista. That was an awful throw by Moreland and that's a play Napoli makes 12 times out of 10.

funny Big Papi story...I was sitting less than 10 rows up right behind home plate a few years ago...he is a huge man...his hands and his head are enormous...no one on either team came close to his size...

Moreland caught the ball inside 1B and Andrus was lined up accordingly, Martin changes lanes and gets right in the path of the ball. I've been in situations like that and if the guy at the bag is on a bad line, its hard to throw through a runner.

A one hopper is an easy scoob for Andrus, but one hoppers can be tough if you only see it at the last minute. Mind you, his drop at 3rd is also a catch he makes 12 out of 10 times.

 

[Sara]

Yeah, and he's a ground ball guy too, which is why he was in the game in that situation. He wasn't himself. The Tulo butt stuff was beyond weird, way too intense of a game to even try to make a joke there, if that's what he was doing.

I told you nothing good ever comes from butt stuff.

Yea he's a big boy. Yankees play spring training right down the street from me, got front row ticks to a Yanks/Sox game a few years back and I remember being extremely surprised how huge Robbie Cano was. Papi didn't play this game, didn't get a chance to see him.

That's not a story, that's a fact......

These guys are trying to make the moment about themselves like they're bigger them the game. He added something to the moment that didn't need to be added. Everyone knows the level of respect you step onto that field with and sometimes it's up to the pitchers to police certain things on their own.

well it is funny to me because most people don't realize how big some baseball players are...even Stroman is too tall for you...

Fist pumps should also be banned. Along with curtain calls, handshakes, ass pats, and walk off celebrations at home.

Martin didn't cut inside the line until after Moreland threw it. Was an awful throw by him and a play he needs to make, even if you just get the one out.

And nothing was easy for Andrus in that inning lol

How tall is he?

Yeah he gets in the lane while the ball is in the air, trying to cut sight off for Andrus. That's a difficult throw and catch to make with a runner in the middle.

I wonder how they fell about those closers that make some kind of gesture after their final out, like the guy that pretends to shoot an arrow in the air or whatever.
