I don't see how that catcher missed that ball. The ump was trying to look at the plate and wasn't expecting the catcher not to catch the damn ball. Did you see the color of his nose change after that? It was black before they even got the towel on it. He'll be wearing sunglasses for a while.
Yeah, it must have hit him pretty square. I think the catcher missed it because he knew that the play at the plate was going to be close, so he tried to get the tag down fast, and ended up bringing glove down before the ball got to it. It was just really bad luck that it was directly on course for the ump's nose. Although I suppose an eye would have been worse.
SWEEET!!! We won!! Awesome, an interleague sweep!! 11-1 Astros. Man, they are hot right now. Oswalt, great show. The Astros pitchers are back, and Ensberg is still hot.
Bring on the D-Rays! It will be interesting to see Lugo playing with those chumps...I'm just glad he is not our problem anymore!
