  1. The entire list: Eddie Cicotte, Happy Felsch, Chick Gandil, Joe Jackson, Fred McMullin, Swede Risberg, Buck Weaver and Lefty Williams; Joe Gedeon; Gene Paulette; Benny Kauff; Lee Magee; Phil Douglas; Cozy Dolan; Jimmy O’Connell; William Cox; and Pete Rose.

    1. And yet the Astros – intentional, systematic violators of both rules and the essential nature of the contest – are not on the list.
      How is that possible?

    2. The union should be the first to condemn that.
      Then again, the decent police should be the first to condemn bad cops, and that doesn’t happen, either.

  2. the Mariners are a good team so fair play, but getting shut out sucks

    also Brian jinxed it by pointing out they are scoring 6 a game

  3. The umpire tonight has been so awful, he’s like the other major league umpires.
    Human umpires are a consistent embarrassment.

    That wasn’t the worst call, but it was bad enough. And there have been a ton of bad calls this game.

  4. Hill is not the LAST guy I’d use in an extra inning game, but he’s up there. He always gives up contact, so the runner would very likely move to third with less than two outs. However, to be fair to Boone, there really weren’t any other options, right?

    Hamilton pitched the night before, De los Santos pitched two innings two days ago, and Matzek is worse than Hill.

    So Hill was sadly the correct choice. This is really on the offense, not the relievers.
