Open Thread: Game 128 - A's at Angels (Cont.)

After three full innings, the A's lead 5-1 over the Angels, on the back of a 2-run home run by Scott Hairston, a 2-run single through the infield by Kurt Suzuki, and a sacrifice fly by Mr. Jack Cust. Meanwhile, Brett Tomko gave up his alloted solo home run, and is hoping to keep his streak going as a member of the green and gold.

Hudler talking about the ground rules

going on and on about the cement on top of the wall, except his cement sounds like “See-ment” which sounds like something else.

which should correctly be described as "concrete".

“cement” is what “cements” the aggregate together, to make concrete.

About 50 miles up the road from here is a little town named "Concrete"

I thought that was just a quaintly ugly name for a town, until I drove through. It really is all made of concrete. Ugliest town in the state.

agree

if it was happening 4-6 times per game, every where, they’d have to rethink it. But instead, they get about four a week at most. Very tolerable, to get it right.

Yep

I think the complaints about it are overblown and I’d like to see it for more stuff like plays at the bases. Way too many incorrect calls this year.

with added replay options

Kansas City would not have won in 1985 either. I think the WS should step it up and have more reviewable options.
