August 2, 200322 yr An incomplete or misleading motion, especially an illegal move made by a baseball pitcher. Beckett looked at third base. :mischief2 . Bunch of BS

August 2, 200322 yr Umps should be banned from baseball and replaced by computerized video umpires. lol and who ganna make the calls ?
August 2, 200322 yr I didnt see it but it sounds to me like it wasnt a balk. Just for looking at third base? C'Mon....
August 2, 200322 yr I don't get it.Tommy and Glenn said it was because he looked at third base.Later in the game when one our runners was on third their pitcher looked at third and then threw the ball exactly like Beckett.
August 2, 200322 yr The computerized video umpires would make the calls, didn't you read my post? lol naw i rather have real umps
August 2, 200322 yr Author I don't get it.Tommy and Glenn said it was because he looked at third base.Later in the game when one our runners was on third their pitcher looked at third and then threw the ball exactly like Beckett. I won't be shocked if Jimmy Williams and the Ump crew are in a bar drinking a couple beers laughing this one off.
August 2, 200322 yr I don't get it.Tommy and Glenn said it was because he looked at third base.Later in the game when one our runners was on third their pitcher looked at third and then threw the ball exactly like Beckett. Are broadcasters are Tommy Hutton and Len Kasper.
August 2, 200322 yr The fake throw to 3rd base that Redding did is perfectly legal. However, the reason for balk was so base runners can't be fooled or whatever, and I don't see how Beckett looking over to 3rd is illegal and a fake throw isn't.
August 2, 200322 yr The Marlins always have bad calls by the umps. We need to get out of the position allowing them to make those calls. In others words: DON'T GIVE THEM A DAMN REASON TO MAKE A "MISTAKE!" :angry
August 2, 200322 yr The pitch before the balk should have been a strike. The ump gave the Astros that game.
August 2, 200322 yr Enough of this, you guys are going to get me started on the evil umpires and I don't feel like it. Just give the Astros the win and hope for wins on Saturday and Sunday.
August 2, 200322 yr the astro announcers were saying it didnt look like a balk and would be a shame if the game was decided by that. Still Beckett gave up hte triple after Pierre dove and missed. You only give up a double and nobody cares.
August 2, 200322 yr It was not a balk. Leave it at that, the ump is biased, he is at second tomorrow. Hopefully he can do no harm there.

August 2, 200322 yr Ramp, at first i thought maybe Pierre dove because he couldnt cut it off but on the replay he clearly should have just run it down on a bounce. BTW, nice Padres sig the Frier is in the house.
August 2, 200322 yr he wasn't gonna get the ball if he woldn't have dived for it,it would've gone past him!
August 2, 200322 yr ive been surfing around trying to find some cool pix i found the 97 front page and i have one of the classic solid teal hat. im still gonna make that peter gammons devil horns lol
