That ball hit the knob of the bat, not the batter! Next batter hits a grand slam.
I hate it when bad umpiring decides the outcome of a World Series game!
BLOWN CALL!

1. I think the whole lot of the MLB umpires
and the NFL referees need to be fired.

3. No worries
I find that these things pretty much even out in the end. I'm sure there will be a bad call in Houston's favor before this is over.

4. What if the call was right, and then the batter was walked next pitch?
You'd have the same situation. It wasn't like he'd have been out.

What if Dye had hit the next pitch for a homer?

My point is that Dye could have gotten on base with the next pitch. Why would you assume that Dye would have made an out with the next pitch?
