    If anybody goes crazy over Mitchell Boggs wearing a Georgia shirt...

    He's a Georgia boy, just like Waino.

      Wow, what a horrible game. And what a horrible way for Chipper to end such a great career.

          Also, the whole 2-3 format is a joke. Whose idea was that? LOL...at least "lol" until the team with the better record starts on the road, goes down 0-2 and can't recover.

              Thanks Chipper. I can't believe I won't see you play anymore. It's been amazing. It wasn't supposed to end like this.

                  Its official... This is BullS***.

                  The call and the format.

                  Hopefully that protest works out, but I doubt it will. In my opinion the strikezone is the only thing that shouldn't be up for review (as far as judgement calls go, the ump had no business calling that the way he did as late as he did, and that should be up for review not part of the same protection the K-Zone gets).

                  And even more perversion of the new format, the Nationals now have to travel to St. Louis. The Best team in baseball has to go on the road to a team that last year would have been kept out of the playoffs. They have to travel to play a team they finished 10 games ahead of.

                    Nothing but respect for Chipper Jones. Classy player and guy, who will be missed from all of baseball.

                      Wow...can you imagine the outcry if it was a replacement ump that made that call?

                        The 2-3 format is the only thing that really gets me about all this new stuff.

                          Re: Play-In Game Discussion Thread

                          I agree with the most ridiculous overreaction to a call ever.

                          Kozma jogged over there and it looked like he was camped under there and either lost the ball or thought Holliday called him off. I would agree with the bad call more if Komza would have been busting his tail over there and barely got there.

                          I think the only fault is that it was called late. It is a judgement call, I wasn't there on the field it's not my call. I would agree with the call besides the fact that it was late.

                          I also love everybody trashing the format after there is some controversy. It's a play-in game. Do or die, we all knew it was going to be like this so all the hate after the result is disputed makes me laugh.

                            Gonzalez saying in the post-game presser that the entire protest process went on during that delay, including MLB's decision (because of the circumstances with the division series, it had to be done fast). Sounds like it's over and done with.

                              Someone point me to a specific example of a ball being that far out and a call being that late being called the same way.

                              Serious inquiry.

                                I've been trashing this format REPEATEDLY since the moment it was even PROPOSED. And so have many, many others.
