Well how you guys feel about the Instant replay in baseball? It only for homeruns if it was near the poll fair or foul.

Or just barley clearing the wall. Everything else is a judgement call, Which means its final and cant really agure it.

catch,hit by batter, safe,out, strike,ball, fair,foul, intefrence, check swing, balks.

As being an umpire, It is really a thankless job  I am umpiring fall ball right now i love it so much :D

Its under cal-ripken rules which is under baberuth leauge rules.

Here the problem the red sox have let him do it in the past. and will conutine to let him do it. You cannot stop him from doing it.  He just shouldn't play intill he grows up so more.

So its red sox fault for letting manny get away with it.

Though we can only do so much with  the stadium we got now.  I think its time for the red sox to look to plan to make new fenway park. keep everything the same. more pakring, more seats, 

But do not knock down fenway we should make a historicly site and or let some highschool/babruth legues acutally play in it. even some little leauges. I think that be the best thing.

I know they talk about this before.  And i didn't want a new ball park. But they cant do much anymore. and before anything else.. there wont be much land in boston... to pick from.

if we keep watting.

1. Pitcher throws a pitch hits the ground first is this a ball or Hit By Pitch (AKA:HBP)?

2. foultip runners can advance?

3. Ball is hit on the plate is this fair or foul (the ball stays on plate)?

4. tie goes to the runner?

good luck all. I am sure most of you can get these.

2 might be the harderst one to understand for some.  maybe 1.

Ok i volunteer  my time with three diffrent baseball groups as being an umpire i get paid for two of them. That said

volunteer  is suppose to help when you can. Suspend  the kid for two games is little overboard. when you have to go to work.

" i didnt see my kids play" Well  she didn't either  It is hard enough for these leauges to get people to volunteer.   Might want to try something alittle diffrent. A kid shouldn't suffer.

 Money or time? really there are better ways to do it.  Though she did sign sometihng and should of talk to her work about it next time.

That said  there are plenty of parents in the stands that can help.  ususally there only three or four people. 

She had to work which is undersatable.

When we already offically had two gamse?   in japan or not does it matter where the game is played? no

I know you guys like to support you're team. But trash talks brings alot of neagitve to the issue.

Just play and have fun? what happen to that? :(

You can only wear your uniform top or jacket. You can’t wear your night-shirt, or whatever it is. You can wear it before games, or after games, but not during games. You have to have your uniform top at all times.”

Comon on are you kidding me? mlb shouldnt care what going on. =\ How about let worry about steriods use than worriyng if they have the uniform on or under who cares?

You all had doubts about  J.d drew Now you having doubts about dice-k

Your not a true fan if you dont have condfesnve in your on team pitching?  wow

this what i see happeing

Dice-k - 5 innnining

Beckett- 6/7 innning

okjima- 8th innnining

pap- 9th innning

There is no point and aguring with a stirke or ball its useless move on. The strike zone is small and tight.

Stirke zone is letter high and knee low. If its not close or its called a ball its a ball move on.

If its called a strike and you dont like it Move on it.

First of all i cant wait for the game GO SOX !  Dont forget if you going to the game where red :D

Now we know curt is going to do better than last outing. He trys to do better. I do think we will win tommorw night game.

And dice -k and sunday game?  Well who knows he pitch very well intil some errors in the feild.

Now we know how the red sox game go all i can say is Manny

Now with some of diffrent media saying bugs help tribe to win? Last time i check both had to face it.  they last for two days.

So if yankees loose tommorw what will there excuse be?

indains won. 

Now we not use to close games and leads in al. Since along time.

Now in NL. its normal thing that happens every year. For us its a new exprenice. And nothing is wrong with that.

I am not but i dont think we have lost more than three games in a row?

We just need batters to swing at strike three instead of watching it

Well The red sox havent hit well in the last three games with the yankees. Though we do have pitching and still have 5.0 game lead.

I am going to comment on the two plays that happen . As far as youk did go he wasnt near the feilder. It was Either going to obstrution he out, or around him or he should of he the dirt as low as possible.

As for the two that pitchs hit youk . Dosent matter if it was addcident or not,  If you throw at a player head , Umpire judgement again he going to be ecejeted.

As for dryal Cousions making a werid and strange unessrary comment . i quote it

"as i think terry wanted the runs" Well of course but he wants the game to be fair. As the 3rd base umpire called youk out, And second base umpire called him safe. the Second and 3rd base umpire had the better look and call.

It be nice getting out of yankees place. So lets hope we get a sweep when they come into boston next time .

when need hits right now and thats what were missing
