Yesterday...October 14, 2015...the fifth game of the Toronto Blue Jays, LA Dodgers series.....the ALDS...
Wow! Just wow!!!
They say in every baseball game, you see something you've never seen before!
Amen to that!
Game tied in the sixth inning....
Seventh inning:
"Toronto tied the game, 2-2, on Edwin Encarnacion's home run in the sixth, but Texas reclaimed a 3-2 lead on a fluke play that started the seventh inning on a bizarre path that would define this series.
[LA's] Rougned Odor was on third base with two outs when Shin-Soo Choo took a fastball for ball two. Blue Jays catcher Russell Martin tried to throw the ball back to relief pitcher Aaron Sanchez, but it hit Choo's hand, holding the bat, and ricocheted toward third base. Odor broke home and scored.
[OMG!!!!! Jaw meet floor!!! ]
Umpire Dale Scott called a dead ball and sent Odor back to third, but Rangers manager Jeff Banister asked Scott to convene with the other umpires to discuss the play. They reversed the decision and allowed Odor's run to count, calling a crew-chief review for a rule check in a sequence that prompted Blue Jays manager John Gibbons to initiate an official protest, which Toronto withdrew after its victory.
[The stands went nuts!!! Looked like it was all over for the birds!!]
"It never happened in my life before. I don't really know what the rule is. He was in the box.
[Then....the Dodgers make three errors to load the bases!!!!!]
[Then this:]
The Blue Jays' dramatic comeback put an end to one of the most bizarre and tense postseason games in recent memory."
