 .......always on the leading edge of fashion ....

 

First he rocked an adjustable cap, ....and now, after one of the guys rocking a white t-shirt under his jersey,...he's rocking one under his cool base.  I don't know what it is, ...but it just doesn't look right.  Meaningless post/thread, I know, but ....... does the white look ok?  I don't think so.  Thoughts?

 

Also ... fly away safe mechanic :)

As long as the others are wearing it, it's fine.

When you get a good look at a tag, you can see the glove movement change (especially on slo-mo replay). When we can't see the glove movement change, it's hard to tell when the tag actually occurred. So we make our best guess based on all the info that we have. With a benefit of slo-mo replays shown in the video, though I could not see the glove/tag, I would guess that the tag beat the touch and bang the out. But I don't thing the IR reviewers should be guessing whether the tag beat the touch. If they have a clear view that the tag beat the touch, fine, reverse the call, but don't be second guessing the on-field umpire.

 

Unless they had a clearer view than the ones shown, I think they should have left that call alone.

Angel must be trying to fly away from his bad rep.

I'm going to have to take away a "Like" away from you!

I prefer the double throat jab safe mechanic with a karate-like "YA!!" with it.

Yeah we saw it at CDP!

I'm going to have to take away a "Like" away from you! I have a bad rep too but that doesn't make me a bad umpire.

Now, with Angel...
