In the late innings, aren't the umpires supposed to initiate a review? Don't they know the ground rules that the upper wall is out of play. Surely they saw the ball hit it. I think they didn't remember that it was a ground rule. Need a yellow line at the top of the lower wall to remind everyone what the ground rule is!

I won't be surprised if MLB steps in if they end up tied in the WC because of this. I could see it getting finished from that point.

Price extended thru 2017 with option for 2018.

So..Price gets another year. Imagine the above .500 second half, and that he likely comes cheap, earned him another season.

The good news is we're right there fighting for the #2 pick. Hopefully the last few games are losses.

"Injured..." I think he did pinch hit on the last day or so, or at least got one at bat in from what I had heard and if he got a hit he woulda over taken him. I guess that batting champion title will last longer than people remembering he sat out to preserve it.Ironman92;1813625 wrote:Murphy was out most of the last month...so there's that
