Ruined a chance for our pitcher to get a no-hitter by calling an error a hit. Still a chance for a reversal, I guess.

I'm confused by this. How do you ruin a no-hitter by not giving a hit?

EDIT: N/m, read it wrong.

Still its not the umps that make that call.

Our pitcher hadn't allowed a hit yet, but a player on the other team reached first base on a play that was determined to be a hit, thus ruining our pitcher's chance at a no-hitter. The first baseman essentially dropped the ball when the runner was a full step an a half away from the bag, so it should have been scored an error instead.

If Hosmer is given an error, the hitter doesn't reach base with a hit.

I read it wrong. But it's still not the umps call.

I was wondering about the Hos antagonism in that thread.

Nope, the antagonism earlier in the thread was due instead to him striking out on a predictable pitch with the bases loaded and two outs.
