line drive off of Cain's leg
He’s okay though. He’s Matt Cain.
Pitching on the other hand…
Only 868 games until the end of Zito's contract
Loney hit a ball that glanced off Cain’s leg and hopefully knocked the suck out of him.

So if a outfielder has ball fall out of his glove, land on top of the outfield fence, then fall on the warning track it’s a home run? Stupid.

I've given up on winning this game
I just want Bowker to launch one to let Cain off the hook.

Good evening, everyone. In the bitching about the ump, I didn't see anyone say that LEWIS SHOULD HAVE HANDLED THE DAMN BALL RIGHT

of course he did.

Shall we send Cain back out there after he threw about 35 pitches last inning and is over 100 for the game? Yes, we shall!
100
that’s it?

Agreed. Sandy Alderson was on the right track with Questrak & reviews & memos.
Until, of course, he left MLB’s front office with, it appears, not a lot of tears shed on either side.

I am still pissed off about the ump call of Lewis's horribly bungled routine dumbass play.
Either ball’s dead, in which case runner should go no further than 3b; or else it’s not, in which case the runner is out at home as played. There ISN’T a scenario in which runner scores. Stupid ass umpires.

There simply has to be accountability for that flagrant misread of the rules

well then the game is broken
and that is sad, because it was nearly perfect
