In my (non-MLB or MiLB) experience, that's actually a recipe for a "quick heave-ho" as you put it. It takes a lot to sit there, maybe wondering if you did miss it or knowing that you did, and listen to a guy rag on you.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06361341904305010488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-35039810889444803832013-04-30T21:10:27.954-07:002013-04-30T21:10:27.954-07:00I disagree, blindrid.

What's more, I do feel bad about kicking a call when it happens. I don't like it, both for myself (striving for excellence) and for the team (striving to be fair). I wouldn't say I feel "stupid," but I definitely feel bad.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06361341904305010488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-88933771363517997302013-04-30T14:07:09.866-07:002013-04-30T14:07:09.866-07:00you've obviously never have worked a game.you've obviously never have worked a game.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06361341904305010488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-22743342601376633992013-04-30T12:07:47.073-07:002013-04-30T12:07:47.073-07:00Horrible call.

Like almost as close as the call Greinke got tossed for arguing last year with Holbrook (I still affirm that is as close to a "tie" as you get). I can see why Bochy is upset, and am surprised he got the quick heave-ho, but I can also understand how Miller got this one "wrong".
