Getting it all out now boys, so I stay positive during the actually game which I won't even watch until I get home in a few hours.

Serious question: what's everyone's take on home runs being up league wide? Is it a lack of pitching talent? Guys taking something that isn't/can't be tested by MLB? Juiced ball?

The league is on pace to hit more home runs than it ever did during the roiding era. Sorry, that, coupled with the independent testing done on the ball and the rise of unexplained blisters on pitchers around the league is making me doubt the league's narrative on this.

Yeah, that's the one I saw, which I came to a conclusion that the run didn't cross. Plus another poster said it as well.

One way or another, it is a huge play. Kudos to Rusty and Boni and Hosmer.

I believe if the third out is a force out then it doesn't matter if the runner crosses the plate first.

I have no rooting interest in the NL. I do heavily enjoy seeing new teams in such as the D-Backs and the Rockies without a shred of doubt. The only reason I ever had to watch the Dodgers retired at the end of last season at the age of 88. As a baseball fan, I enjoyed Clayton Kershaw, and Vin Scully calling Clayton Kershaw. Those are days that I miss. Outside of that, fuck the Dodgers.

Come postseason time, outside of the Royals, I am rooting for David over any and all Goliaths. Especially in a year like this with the Dodgers and the Astros.

That wasn't technically a force out though. If the runner would have touched home before the out was recorded at first, the run would have counted.

It was a force out at first since he didn't tag up. If he tags and is thrown out at second that's not a force out and the run counts.

I understand that it is a force out, but not in the traditional sense. The run would have counted if he crossed the plate first. I'm 99.99999% certain of that.

Yep, and the example given is exactly what happened tonight, except the runner did not cross the plate before the 3rd out was recorded.

I believe this is an approved ruling from rule 5.08(b).

APPROVED RULING: One out, Jones on third, Smith on
first, and Brown flies out to right field. Two outs. Jones
tags up and scores after the catch. Smith attempted to
return to first but the right fielder’s throw beat him to the
base. Three outs. But Jones scored before the throw to
catch Smith reached first base, hence Jones’ run counts.
It was not a force play.

That's the correct rule. It didn't matter if the runner tagged up or not at 1st base, the runner at 3rd still can score before the inning ends.

So in looking up force outs all possible force outs (by their definition) are removed on a caught fly ball. Found another site talking about this as a commom misconception. It seems strange even though the runner has only one option to go back and tag but it does make sense for the rule to not cover bad baserunning.

It's true that no run can score under any circumstance where the final out is a force out but the caught fly ball removes the force outs completely. Runners aren't "forced" to leave the base, instead they make that decision and judgment so it does make sense.

That is impressive that you knew that. I was thinking run would not have counted because of Mahtook being out for not returning to starting base in time on batted ball caught in air.

I do not think Ryan and Hud made the rule clear during broadcast. I wonder if Upton could have scored if he expected to tag up and run full speed.
