The best part about the running lane is that the rule says if the runner is outside of it he can be called out. It's all part of the ump's judgement. Also, the rule says b/c the base is outside of the running lane, the runner can be outside of it to step on the base.Farmer1906 said:McInnis said:
What is the white line parallel to the foul line for? Is the runner not required to run between those two lines?
That is the running lane. You go in there you're safe from interference calls.

If the ball had hit Jake's helmet before the first baseman's glove, would that have been interference?
Yep, the June AL RBI leader Jose Abreu.

So the rule says he has to keep both feet inside the running path unless he needs to step out immediately before touching the base. I just watched the replay and the camera doesn't switch to Jake until he's just a few feet from the back but his left foot was definitely coming down inside the foul line and it looked like his right foot did as well. I guess it's the ump's discretion on whether he interfered with the catch. Good it went our way.
All this has made me wonder why it's called the foul line. It's in fair territory, why isn't it called the fair line?

You forgot Brantley.Lonestar_Ag09 said:
He's waiting for his apology from you guys...
Hopefully he eventually deserves one for Montero as well, but its baseball so .500 aint too bad
I'm not worried about Gilbert's struggles. He's a kid. There's going to be ups and downs. But my main point here is that there's a reason Yordan has been very vocal to the organization about his desire to be the primary left fielder. And the numbers show he hits much better when he plays in the field.Quote:
"I don't think its (his elbow injury) affected his swing because we wouldn't allow him to play if it was affecting (his) swing. I think it's more that sometimes when you're put in the game as a DH, it's tough to hit off the bench. It's a really difficult thing," Brown said. "That's a real thing. If you look across the league, your numbers sitting as a DH are not as good (as) when they're on the field. It's just the way it is. So we hope to get them out there sooner rather than later"
I've been looking forward to his regression toward the mean, especially now that he's just started pulling homers in MMP.Dies Irae said:
Abreu in the last 5 games has 5 xbh, 3 of which are homers, 10 hits and 10 rbi.
Crazily enough he's picked his rbi pace for 162 up to 85.
Bagwell was basically the acting GM when he was signed. He's also the guy who said Brantley would be back by opening day.Lonestar_Ag09 said:
Not once has Brantley been mention with Bagwell so you can't retroactively add that on.
No apologies to him. Keep in mind he was also lobbying for Ausmus to be the GM. He has good intentions, but he shouldn't have a seat at the decision table.Lonestar_Ag09 said:

In this case, you can. In statistics, the regression refers to the deviation from the mean getting smaller. In other words, if you have observed an accurate and precise mean, then the further an observed data point is from that mean, the more likely the next one will be closer to the mean. Deviation is shrinking and 'regressing to the mean'.Lonestar_Ag09 said:
You can't regress up…

I just love the math/stat term discussion from a bunch of people, half of whom probably flunked 141 at least once.
Carry on ladies and gents.
