    Yea, your dumb definitive assertions on what I saw. It was fairly obvious from the angle I watched (viewing from 3rd base) that the hand got in there first.

    You should've just posted that to my initial question. No need to get emotional and lash out.

    You've seen an angle that indisputably shows his hand on home plate without a tag being applied?

    Hope we end their season at some point, the gay area smug if they knock us out of the playoffs or God forbid, win it all, would be too much.

    Did you even watch the replays they showed at the start of the 10th? Different angles, probably what mlb had.

    But go ahead and believe a screen cap that was before the tag was ever applied. I know it looks like he should have applied the tag there... but he doesn’t.

    Hinch has the perfect temperment for this job.

    Osuna was traded for and eventually will be the closer. It's not Hinch's style to just strip players of their status/position. Rondon would've closed until he squandered a couple - now he has. Osuna is set as closer, very near future.

    Gotta feel like a big win for the A's tonight. Really feels like momentum is on their side.

    How can you POSSIBLY see his hand touch the plate first? All I see is a blur of either his hand or Maldonado's foot. You can't just extrapolate his hand touching. You have to actually SEE it to overturn the call. Maybe MLB has some angle we don't but there is NO WAY any of the angles they showed can prove his hand got there b4 the tag.

    They showed it at the start of the 10th. Unfortunately the tag was late... should have been earlier as the ball did beat the runner with that amazing throw.
