I don't know where they were sitting, but the broadcasters were pretty adamant about the ball being foul and yes only two umpires in a game of this magnitude is incredible ... how Bush League is that. That is hard to comprehend...I surely thought they would have 4 on the field.

Not to mention the umpires have to make the call in real time without the benefit of slow motion instant replay from the comfort of a recliner.

There is zero fault in that being called fair. 1) because it was and 2) it was a close call on a ball that was scorched with a diving 3rd baseman blocking the view to an extent.

Some of the pitch calls, different story.

1. The broadcast crew has been horrendous.
2. They have 3 umpires, and although I don't agree the home plate ump has everything to the bag.
