I usually wait for a pitch to hit the catcher's glove, pause the tv, then resume when the streaming radio broadcast catches up.
Usually about 4-6 seconds.

Use the sound of the ball hitting the mitt on the radio and reference that with seeing the ball hit the mitt on TV.

Inconclusive my ass. Betts is leaping and has his arm as stretched out as possible. The fan did not reach into the field of play, and the Astros got screwed out of a tie game.

I’m still surprised by how high Mookie got up to make it close.
It still should have been ruled a home run
Giving away 2 runs and having 2 stolen for a net negative 4 is a terrible way to start the game.

Jeff Passan @JeffPassan 2m ago
This seems pretty straightforward: "No interference shall be allowed when a fielder reaches over a fence" unless "it is clearly intentional." If you look at the replay, it's awfully hard to see clear intention from the fan in touching Mookie Betts' glove.
Jeff Passan @JeffPassan 8m ago
I'd love to hear the explanation for that. Didn't look like a fan reached over the fence. If he didn't, and the ball was over the fence when it was touched, and the contact was incidental between the fan and Mookie Betts' glove, that has to be a home run, right?
Jayson Stark @jaysonst 7m
If you had bottom of the 1st, Game 4, for the first "Joe West moment" of this series, you win.
Not sure how Cowboy Joe & the replay reviewers in NY could conclude that fan reached onto the field of play to interfere, based on what I saw.
But that's how a 2-run HR became an out!
Joel Sherman @Joelsherman1 10m
Altuve is called out on fan interference after replay. I think that is a bad call. The ball was beyond the fence and Betts closed his glove before the ball arrived. I don't think he was going to catch that. 2-run HR goes away. #Astros #RedSox
Buster Olney @Buster_ESPN 12m
Are you going to eject the fans for that?
If not, it should be a home run.

Doesn’t help that the sad sack TV commentators are carrying the water for MLB. “It wasn’t conclusive”, “the goal of replay is to get it right, but this time they had no chance”, etc. Any fool could look at that reply and see that it was conclusive. Just look at the direction the fans were reaching: straight up, NOT forward.
God dammit.

Well folks, the Astros are going to have to beat the Red Sox, the umpires, and MLB to win this series.
I’m bitter too, but we’re the reigning WS champs. Time to play like it and just win the fucking game.

Please, no.
-
Do we need a replay?
Obvious fan interference.
-
This shitshow is fucking contagious.
HBP's
Walks
PB's Machete & McCann at critical times
2 Out hits out the fucking wazhoo
2 of 4 starting pitchers cannot replicate their form
Shark bait AB
Closer who walks the bases loaded and gives up a granny
Farmer AB's - swing at shirt in the dirt
Giant brass balls to even think we are in this.
We need a gut punch or else - starts now with Yuli
-
Thinking positive thoughts, because why not?
-
Obvious fan interference.
We will never know if we don't take a look.
-
Yuli chases way high after taking strike 1 that was begging to be dumped into RF.
-

I think we’ll get one, one way or another.
-
Tying run to the plate. Come on, Carlos!
-
Kimbrel has nothing tonight. Please leave him in, Cora.
-
Josh walks.
FB away, hit it to Right Carlos.
Off speed inside, turn on that mother.

Good swing!

McCann is gonna hit
-
I like it.
-
Back 2 back walks.
McCann steps up.
-
I want to hear Blum's call on this one.
-
Can’t believe Cora is leaving him in.
-
FUCK! Just missed it.
-
Just got under it.
-
Holy crap that was a weak first pitch breaking ball.
-
Damn. Just missed it.

Alight Kemp. Make up for your base running blunder.
-

It was a straight up spinner.
-
Still hasn’t thrown Kemp a strike

Alex, we believe in you.
-
Bregman, do it!
-
Welp. Shit.
-
Fuck.
-
FUCK
-
That was deflating.
-
Well, there’s the gut punch.
-
Oh well.
-
Well, we've won 3 in a row before, right?
Not playing like this, but it's been done.
-
What a shitburger this series has been.
-
That was probably the season in the line there.
-
Well, there’s the gut punch.
Shoulda woulda coulda.... fuck this hurts.
-
I'm wiped out.
What a game.
The only reason the Astros stepped on their dicks so much tonight was that they kept dusting themselves off, putting it back in their pants, and battling.
-
Big “fuck you” to Bregman from the BBGs.

And two of the games will be on the road, but why worry?

Baseball is a cruel mistress.

I'll try my best Alfred E. Neuman impression.

Win tomorrow with your ace on the mound and then see what happens.

Best road team in baseball.
Just need to get a win tomorrow --- let Fenway take care of itself.
Worst thing possible is to get swept at home.

Yep. Gotta win to keep playing.

Could not agree more.... btw, fuck all of social media....
-
It's amazing as shitty of a game that they played, they had a chance to win it in the 9th.
-
And that game was almost 5 hours long. Jesus.
-
It's tough to lose a tie game.

Absolutely~

Man, it's really shitty watching the better team repeatedly punch themselves in the dick for 3 straight games. Some of the worst baseball they've played all year and somehow had a real chance to win all 3. Fuck this.

You can simultaneously hold that the Astros gave away multiple runs through dicksteppery and the complete inability to block balls in the dirt, AND that Joe West’s monumental fuckup fundamentally changed the course of the game.
I can accept that West’s fat ass never got into position and he guessed wrong.
I can’t accept that MLB had crystal clear evidence that the fan never reached into the field of play, yet upheld the call. That’s criminal.

I would like to acknowledge Collin McHugh for doing a kick ass job last night!
The Astros had chances to get the win regardless of the HR call. The bullpen, which we all thought was a strength of this team, failed and failed miserably all series. Rarely do you win a game when you give up 8 runs.

They've score 7, 5, 2, and 6 runs and trail 3 games to 1.
Pitchers, starters and bullpen, have failed this team in numerous spots.

I don’t want to be too hard on them, because that’s a damn good team they’re facing. But you can’t let Jackie Bradley beat you.

Or here's a thought... Quit making dumb fucking mistakes that gifts a team that doesn't need the help more runs.

And maybe remember that you just because you're sitting on 2 outs and 2 strikes, you still have to finish the hitter off.

Do not put all the blame on the catcher. I hated to see McCullers come in.

Yep. James coughed the lead up twice with two outs. He did well overall, but there is more to pitching than throwing hard.

Hinch can manage better when he's sleeping than I can when awake, but I was absolutely astounded when he brought McCullers into that bases-loaded situation. Let Pressly fix his own mess.
