2 calls at second base today....

In the 3rd inning Janowski slid hard into Austin Nola breaking up the double play. Jamkowski didn't slide out of the baseline, but if you look at the replay, he cleary raised his right spike against Nola's leg, which easily could have been the basis to award LSU the double play. Stony Brook scored 2 runs that inning.
No call by umpire Tony Norris.
Yet when Snikeris overslid second, Norris decided to call him out. Rally killer. He could have easily ruled him safe.
In my opinion, if Norris was hesitant to call the automatic double play on Jankowski's illegal slide, he also didn't have call Snikeris out.
Referees don't call holding on every play in the Super Bowl and don't call every touch foul in the NBA.
Let the play on the field determine the outcome, especially leading up to the CWS.
If no double play, then no overslide either.

Blue made two correct calls and you are mad?

The raising of the leg was questionable bit the other call was correct. Had Nola thrown to first it may have induced the call but not throwing it didn't help IMO.

Gausman should've put in between Jankowskis numbers the inning after he spiked Nola

looked like his toe was touching 2nd base to me. should have been safe.

Paid by the game? Employed by the same organization that sold the broadcast rights? Ever wonder why there are so many Games 7s?

Except he was out

But he was out, why doesn't anyone get that?

Why are you still discussing this? LSU didn't hit the ball. Period. It's tough to win any game only getting 3 hits.

Do we have a YouTube video of this yet?

All I have heard is a bunch of excuses from LSU fans when LSU just didn't played well enough to win this game and were very lucky to win game #1. I am happy they are still in this series at all. Stony Brook is a Regional #4 seed if I am correct. LSU is a National #7 seed. They should not be out playing LSU like this. That said LSU can turn it all around tomorrow.

Both calls could have easily gone either way. Baseball could definitely use some kind of replay system for the umpires. There's way to many calls that are clearly off.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda....this is textbook LSU.

What about the pitch Gausman threw over the plate with 2 strikes and 2 outs in the third that got called a ball? We get that call and those 2 runs don't score.

I think the play where LSU was called out at 2nd after the walk, has to be one of the weirdest plays I've ever seen.
That it later was ruled a pick off in itself, shows the umpires should have been A HELL OF A LOT MORE VOCAL that a walk had been issued. That play still doesn't shake out correctly to me.
One of the astute commentators thanked his experience with Strat-o-matic baseball in helping him correctly predict the official scoring. Who was that guy - thought he was great throughout the telecast.
