If you can figure out what the umps were thinkin'...
Just finished watching the Twins game....weirdest double play ever...
Runners on 1st and 2nd, 1 out. Batter hits a fly towards the wall. Outfielder bobbles it, can't tell that it hit the wall as it bounced out and back into his glove. 3rd base ump says no catch, but not loud enough for runner from 2nd to hear it...so he heads back towards 2nd. Runner from 1st is on 2nd at the time, gets confused and runs back towards 1st...passing the hitter. So there's an out. Only the umpire says double play, so runner on 2nd walks off the bag 'cause that'd be the 3rd out. He gets tagged, so it IS the 3rd out. Confused? Yeah, so was everybody....including the scorer...who changed the scoring from a hit to a fielders choice...despite the batter hitting it off the green monster. Good thing the Twins were up big and it didn't matter. .........as opposed to the A's...who got ROBBED
