There's nothing the Rays can do about that either.
That’s what irritates me the most.

To the Ump's credit, I already know that Hammels did not get pitches 6 and 9 either.

But he got Ball 4 to navi and few other calls that puts the pressure on the batters.

And for Kaz from time to time. So, stay consistent.

Awful
If I were the kind of guy to make outlandish accusations, I’d suggest that the Vegas bookies – who stand to lose a lot if the Rays prevail – might’ve slipped these ol’ boys a buck or two.
But I’m not the kind of guy to make outlandish accusations.

we have played embarrassingly in our last 16+ innings, but these umpires have been a fucking joke all series long. All of MLB should be embarrassed by their obviously blown missed calls onboth sides.

make the case that it’s going to cost the Rays anything, because they’ve been benificiaries as often as not, but major league baseball should be embarassed at the quality of the umpiring during their pinnacle event.
It’s not a joke, it’s sad.

I believe he was just commenting on the widely held opinion
that baseball indoors in Florida is stupid. “It’s just not real baseball”, as I heard from fans at the Trop throughout the year. I was hoping it would have stormed more than it did during game 2 so they would really appreciate being indoors, but it only rained enough for them to comment that they might get wet after the game.

Push this game to a neutral site in order to save a buck. Although I don’t entirely put it past them, they would get a lot of negative press for having a World Series game in Texas or Atlanta. Florida seems like more of a viable option, but it would still essentially be a home game for the Rays.

This from Jayson Stark...........
If this game can’t be resumed — and at this point, that’s actually the most likely scenario — it’s expected that it would be scheduled to resume Tuesday night. But MLB’s COO Bob DuPuy told Fox that because the forecast for Tuesday was equally horrendous, it’s possible it might not be possible to finish this game until Wednesday.
Asked what the chances were of finishing the game Monday night, DuPuy replied: “Right now, we’re not optimistic.”
If this situation had arisen in any World Series game before 2007, baseball wouldn’t have had the option to suspend the game. Under the old rules, it would have been declared a tie and started over from the first inning. But a 2007 rule change required that, once games become official, all tie games would be suspended and resumed at a later time from the point at which they’re stopped.
And now for yet another complication: The Rays checked out of their hotel in center-city Philadelphia, in anticipation of flying home after the game — and they can’t get back in, because the hotel is sold out.
They’re scrambling to find rooms — somewhere — as we speak.

So I guess Bob Dupuy is full of shit then. The man just said on live TV that if the game was tied that the game is suspended and will resume at a later date.....
Fox officials included that prior to 2007 this game would have STARTED OVER if tied and game was called due to weather

No...
because this game wasn’t tied based on the previous rules.
Boom. Outta Here.

Enlighten me old wise one. I assume you are saying that if they were to call the gamewith Philly leading 2-1?
Because the way I see it the score was TIED 2-2 when MLB called the game due to weather (in part because it got them out of a bad situation if they called a shortened WS game). This gets them out of one big pickle.

Okay I will enlighten you...
under the old rules, after the game is official and a game is suspended the “official” score is the score of the last completed whole inning. Therefore, under the previous rules, Phillies win, Rays lose.
Boom. Outta Here.

I get it, but this whole time, I am talking current rules. See my first quote saying who came up with "suspending" a game under these circumstances...
I already knew that in years past they would have called the game. Meaning, I wished they WOULD have started the game over (against any pitcher not named Cole)

Under the rules where a game would have been restarted...
they would have had to play another half inning.
Your argument is moot,

After all the bullshit
I gotta give it to the MLB
they played through absolute horrendous weather until the Rays tied it so they wouldnt call a deciding game.

Oh, yeah.
They were already pretty damn low anyways, at least enough for there to be articles about how low the ratings were.

One should expect low ratings when you play at 1 am

Even 8pm is late during the week
When the games typically go for a few hours.

Seriously, from a guy who work with Hilton Hotels. It’s a monday and NO MAJOR conventions going on in downtown Philly. I am calling bullshit!

Didn't this happened to the Spurs?
They were trying to get out of New Orleans, but their plane wouldn’t take off due to mechanical issues. Because they had already checked out of their hotel, and it was all sold out, they spent the night on the runway.
My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver

and how are we not talking about what happened in the game?
Pena had 2 hits and a RBI, Longo got a hit, BJ walks on water, no errors through 5 innings.
I guess that means we can do this shit!
