Valentine said he waved goodbye to get his attention and to say "goodbye, see you in Miami", when Boston plays Miami in Miami for inter-league play. Ozzie said if he had seen it he would have uttered a profanity at Valentine.<br />Oh well, keep that match-up in June on your calendar. Will it be, I went to a fight and a baseball game broke out or what? Stay tuned. Have the crews ready for some possible posturing or it may just be a bunch of hype.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-70792379355486726742012-03-15T11:40:03.106-07:002012-03-15T11:40:03.106-07:00Southern Miss Vs.

They didn't actually pick up the mechanic. and they didn't have a camera that was 1st base line extended. MLB.com has proved that they will show not only ejections but also controversal plays.... To further that point... They can only show what the TV broadcast has shown as they can't compile footage that doesn't exist.tmacnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-36236350778557647202012-03-13T09:46:39.083-07:002012-03-13T09:46:39.083-07:00@js1metsfan, I think this means we'll have to ...@js1metsfan, I think this means we'll have to qualify the prop with "first regular season ejection."Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06361341904305010488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-64009382078805056972012-03-13T08:32:50.153-07:002012-03-13T08:32:50.153-07:00I hope MLB does a better job of actually showing t...I hope MLB does a better job of actually showing the ejection the rest of the year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-74944239671519045862012-03-13T06:23:39.784-07:002012-03-13T06:23:39.784-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Big Marchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10059152139707572715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-53047439878567946762012-03-13T06:21:56.109-07:002012-03-13T06:21:56.109-07:00Mitch Williams had a good point on MLB network.

It's more likely Bobby was signaling the outfield or infield, to get their attention. As Mitch pointed out the supposed waive and the following infield signals, looked like they were all part of the same motion.<br />It's a good story, but most likely it's a misunderstanding of infield signals.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-55638055953632007592012-03-13T03:24:07.824-07:002012-03-13T03:24:07.824-07:00so does this automatically change the prop questio...so does this automatically change the prop question on when ozzie will get tossed?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-18666781050807172882012-03-12T23:52:06.157-07:002012-03-12T23:52:06.157-07:00I love Bobby V. waving goodbye.

Timmons may have been blocked out by Gonzalez on this play... Cubby was 1st base line extended (which is in foul territory for our non-umpires). It is reasonable to think a signal may have been discreetly given by cubby to Timmons and hence the call came very very very late which is why Ozzie was unhappy. Crew communication is key.... delayed calls can result in a situation which is what we have here. Obviosly our HP umpire can not be up the line or around home plate as he'd get hit or have to duck if there is a following play at the plate. Good positioning.... great call and communication in what amounts to a tough play for a couple of really good umpires.... And welcome back everyone!!!! Happy new YEAR!tmacnoreply@blogger.com
