Phil Coke with Shut down innings, and now he's calling the umps out for horseshit calls.
FSD
Phil Coke on FSD: "I can't even be mad. I made pitches I needed to make, we made plays we needed to make, and we didn't get the results."
Phil Coke on FSD (directly to camera): "Bear with us. Hold on. It's happening."
Coke with the balls to say it.
Coke on FSD: "I was pretty confident that Santiago beat the runner to the bag, that the throw beat the runner to the bag."
Coke on FSD: (cont.) "I guess we could go look at the replay, and see what it says."
Coke on FSD: "I knew for a fact the guy was out at 1st base ... There's no way his body came off the bag with the ball not in his glove."
Phil Coke had this screen shot ready for reporters in the Tigers clubhouse. Cubs took the lead on this play. http://pic.twitter.com/uWQp1nGB

I'm sure the webvideos will be out over night, and story links to it.

Peralta on FSD: "No matter what, he's out. Everybody see it. They miss them both, both plays."
Peralta on FSD: "I think it’s twice, ‘out’ and the umpire call safe. Everybody can see on the replay, make another mistake."

Laird on FSD: "When you give a team six outs, it's tough to win."

Peralta shouldn't be saying anything...the umps didn't do their job....neither did he!
 
didn't he have 2 errors in the game?



Errors because of missed calls.

Not to say that Peralta is blameless, but the fact is he did the job, no matter how poorly, and if we had instant replay on game-altering decisions like those, the inning would have been over on his throw to Santiago.

I honestly am beginning to think the Umpires are screwing up so much so that Selig will be forced to add more replay, thus taking some heat off of them.

Imaging how cushy a job it would be if they could know that if they made a mistake (ala Joyce-Galarraga) it could be reviewed, saving them from death threats.
