Is It All Over Now For This Baby Blue?




except it's not over for making excuses with blown calls.

as my old teammate Lyn Lary wrote:
(see the above video for proof and note the graphic for pitch called a strike which was really a ball)
So of course now the entire story, starting with the broadcasters at TBS during the game, and pumped up about a thousand degrees on Sports Center, is that the Twins wuz robbed.  Why?  Because the pitch before Berkman hit his leadoff double in the seventh was probably—if barely—strike three.
This has already been repeated ad nauseum, because apparently there has never been a questionable ball/strike call in the playoffs before.  Such as, say, the pitch BEFORE the uncalled strike, which was about a foot off the plate but WAS called a strike.
