That should be Castro's call. Throw was perfect, Kraus was in perfect position, Jeter did exactly what he's supposed to do there...not sure what happened, if Castro ordered the cut or Kraus just cut it on his own. The latter should not happen.

Shit. Dominguez, that's your ball. You HAVE to come catch that.

HudsonHawk · « **Reply #39 on:** April 03, 2014, 09:38:56 pm »

OK, Dominguez was in deep LF, and Kraus makes Matt Schaub look like Carl Lewis, so I guess Corporan has to get that ball.

So that's AT LEAST 2 gift runs from Astros mental mistakes tonight.

Cervelli - Flies out to right

Middle of the 7th, Yankees - 4-2.

Corp was right there, under it, then moved away. With A-Rod suspended, there's no obvious suspects for a fake "I got it" call, so...

Probably depends on the gun. He just threw some high cheese by Beltran, so it's got a little something on it.

He looks totally lost right now. Taking everything that's right down the middle, and swinging only at the really awful ones.

He's always looked lost. Every once in a while the pitcher will make a mistake and hit the bat with the ball and it will go a long way. But Carter ain't exactly "hitterish".
