Scuttaro was wearing a knit cap over his baseball hat? That's fairly embarassing. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/photo?slug=getty-72124136cc009_alcs_game_3_o_5_18_29_pm&prov=getty Didn’t catch this from my seat behind the bullpen.

I won't be happy until the last out when they close out the A's. If Oakland should win today, we have to see Zito again and he could pitch better than last time. Say they win that one too, then it's 3-2. Then we have the game two and three match-ups again in Oakland. Even though this Tigers team looks totally different than it did on October 1, they could still lose four in a row. Oakland's bats would have to come to life (which they could) and they would have to pitch out of their asses. I am really hoping Detroit can close them out today. Go Tigers!

You have to be on the infield side of the play. You can't cut in to get a "perpendicular" look at the force because you would have to wait for the runner to clear. There is no way the umpire could get as good a look at that play as he would at first. He almost couldn't help but be screened a bit, and perhaps be moving as well. I haven't seen the replay so am not sure what "blue" was doing. Like someone said earlier - - we got a big break on Pudge being called safe in NY. Now gotta get my excuse ready for Mon. so I can be home online to try and score WS tics. Back to the call at third, yes it was wrong, but if you have ever umpired before - that is a tough call.
