This better be overturned. |

I hope he gets it, but I feel like that official scorer robbed CC, the team, and all of us of what could have been a memorable day.

I'm sure if it's overturned, Sabathia will get some sort of make-up ceremony pre-game in Milwaukee. But yah... sucks that we got jobbed out of the
experience by an official scorer.

It will always be a no no for me. That was amazing and only an idiot would call that a hit. Clearly it was an error and that was stated by everyone at the time
it happened. Home team scoreres are terrible and this needs to be looked at in the bigger picture. He ruined this great moment for that man, that team and all
the fans. It will still be a no no and just as sweet, but the moment of it was lost because of his arrogant, stubborn and amateurish scoring decision. He had
an opportunity to take it back but apparently he being the only one in the world who feels it was a hit was good enough for him.
Do the right thing, MLB and make this a no no and let the Brewers and their fans celebrate it together this week at Miller Park. |

the thing is the official scorer is pretty much in a lose-lose situation. He can:
(a) change the ruling himself, which anyone and everyone knows, he won't do just to save face. (b) watch the appeal process go through and be shamed (a bit) if it gets reversed (c) watch the appeal process and, when questioned, he stands firm in his decision. The appeal gets denied but the guy is (potentially) not asked to return as an MLB official scorer next season.

pitchleague, isn't that a lose-lose-lose situation?
I think a case could be made that Yost is the best manager in the division. I know that doesn't say much about MLB managers in general.

Unreal ruling. I DVR'd the game and replayed it back. When Sabathia "muffs" the ball, the runner is about 40-45ft down the line.

I find it amazing that we're discussing a scorer other than Miller Park's...but we all know it would have been called an error there, most everything
is.

Hopefully the MLB Office will change to what it should be a NO NO FOR CC

I have a strong suspicion that MLB will uphold the call. I doubt they're going to embarass one of their employees

What was Uecker's take post-game and what is the 1250-AM crew having to say about it?

Trenni said something along the lines of that would make the Brewers 2 for 2 in appeals. Was that this season and what exactly is she talking about?

They appealled a hit against Mota earlier this year. They got it reversed and Mota lost a couple of earned runs

But yah... sucks that we got jobbed out of the experience by an official scorer.
Announcing a reversal (were one to happen) during a home game could take some of that particular sting away. Throwing the sixth one-hitter in Brewers history isn't shameful or anything (if that's what it comes down to). Why should you keep rooting? All 45 of us can't keep the 40,000 seats warm for ya'all when you jump back on the wagon when we eventually start winning. (Soon God, make it soon.) - The Bwaz We can be heroes, if just for one half. - Bring Back the Stein, on CC Sabathia Never surrender. |

They should that call was a joke
Yeah, they should, but we've seen the way MLB treats their umpires. Those guys can instigate fights like no other, but still face no consequences. Of course the Mike Winters incident was an exception, but IMO, the punishment was light (a one-week suspension?). However, I do believe that the scorer will lose his job. A no-hitter, especially by a high profile player like CC would have garnered much press. |

I really don't think it is as open and shut as many here think. Yes, I believe it was an error but the fact that CC didn't use his glove makes it look
like he needed to make an extrodinary play to get him. I can understand that rationalization not that LaRoche would have beat anything out.
