LSU and the umps

Give me a break...

I know the home plate ump. Yall want me to pass along any comments to him on Monday?

So you are annoyed that LSU fans are complaining about wrong calls made by umps against one of their most hated rivals? This is an LSU message board by the way. You would probably fit in well with Bama because they never have a reason to complain about poor officiating.

See what I mean. You love Bama.

every time i think people have gotten as stupid as they can get, they surprise me with something dumber, really throws a wrench in the flynn effect.

I've come to the conclusion that most people who post on this site either never ever stepped foot on LSU'S campus or are in high school. Whenever LSU loses a game it was because of bad officiating benefitting the other team. People here don't seem to realize that LSU was outplayed and lost due to their own errors. Sorry people but LSU is not superior to other teams and fwiw Bama is not LSU's rival. Bama's rivals are Auburn and Tennessee. You kids even bitch when LSU is winning. The majority of people who post here have to be kids because for God's sake you're not adults.

I agree with most of what you said, however I am from Baton Rouge and have 3 degrees from LSU. Also, I'm not even close to 30. I go to football, basketball and baseball games. I follow all the sports.

I was sitting on the 3rd base side. Apparently most people who watch baseball do not know the rule about a ball being fair or foul. Unfotunately it is not where the ball lands but if the ball crosses over third base and lands foul it is a fair ball. It was to close to call from my vantage point but I am biased and think it was foul. I can admitt that. Same with the guy at firstbase. I thought he was out. It was too close though. However, the ump behind home plate sucked for the first few innings of the game. That I can say was to close to call.

I enjoyed the fans get riled up. It felt like the alex box of old.

Not to argue, okay, maybe...but where do you see that? By what you say, if a ball begins in fair territory, passes first or third base and then lands over the outfield wall in foul territory, it is a homerun...

Foul Ball
SECTION 7. A foul ball is a legally batted ball that:
a. Settles on foul ground between home plate and first base or between
home plate and third base;
b. Bounds past first or third base on or over foul ground;
c. First falls on foul ground beyond first or third base;
d. While on or over foul ground, touches an umpire, a player or any object
other than the playing surface;
e. Hits the batter in the batter’s box, or hits the dirt or home plate and then
hits the batter or the bat, which is in the hand or hands of the batter,
while in the batter’s box; or
f. Hits the pitcher’s rubber and rebounds into foul territory between home
plate and first or third base, without touching a fielder.
