Re: MLB playoffs.
The umpiring has been horrible in the playoffs. That was an atrocious call last night. I hope this puts more scrutiny on the umps. The calls on Cano in the last series was BS too. If the Angels lose the series, they really do have a gripe. Still you have to get out there and play and try and put it behind you.

Re: MLB playoffs.
While I agree that the catcher should make the tag, if you're behind the plate, and you know you catch it, your first instinct is to roll the ball back to the mound. Pierzynski took off because he didn't hear anything...and I think the umpire made a judgment call at that point, hence the out call and then the reversal of fortune.
If anything, the home plate umpire should have pointed to the 2nd base umpire to see if he saw it or not...because he's quite obvious that he didn't see it properly.
