The WORST Call I have EVER Seen

Who else saw it?

Top-8, Molina coming home -- not only does he GET HIS FOOT IN before the catcher even MOTIONS to tag...THE F-ING CATCHER DOESN'T EVEN MAKE A TAG!!!!!!!!

Don Denkinger has officially been replaced as the worst umpire in the history of baseball. This guy takes it with ease.

I will agree with you teets3.  That was absolutely horrible.  I didn't even need to see the replay in slow motion to make that call.  I hate to say this but this is a time where baseball needs instant replay.  Throw the red flag out, like football.  That run could end up costing us the game.  And you had Kennedy and Pujols coming up next which could have added some more runs.

No way was that a worse call than Denkinger's '85 Royals pay-off call.  I say pay-off because there's no way that Jorge Orta was safe or even close to safe on that play -- he was a full step away from the bag!  Last night's call was a case of the ball getting there in time, but the catcher was in the wrong spot.  The ump called the play for the ball, not the tag. 

Between that play and the Magic-Pistons game last night, it was a night of awful officiating all around. 

all of you are right that was a terrible call.  1st he didnt even get tagged, but that might have been hard to see from the angle of the umpire and the bang bang play, but even if he would have tagged him he was clearly across the plate safely before the tag was applied.

I dont know how you feel about pujols play at the plate, it would have been a lot easier to call him out, but we had one coming because of the bad call earlier.  that play was very close and the slight hesitation rounding 3rd made it was to close for comfort.

what a great ball player going to 3rd on a 1-2 count and being that agressive just shows he is the greatest player in baseball right now
