Julks is the most unlucky hitter on the face of the earth

Nice play saves a run. Sadly.

If their 2nd baseman had got that ball from LF, Abreu would not have scored.

Julks did a job there, but man that dude can't catch a break there past few weeks. He's doing a lot right at the plate with nothing to show for it

Crazy thing is announcer is wrong ... if Abreu touches home before Chaz was doubled up, the run counts.

I got into it with an ump about this and then went and looked it up and the ump was totally right. The out at 2nd would have been considered an appeal and not actually a force out ... I think almost many of us have had this rule wrong for years

He's had 3 moments where I didnt loathe him

2021 ALCS strike out throw out
2022 WS getting hit by the pitch in game 6
This year mariners go ahead homerun

That's it

Yeah but RBI is nice. I bet Julks gets a hit tonight (possibly a HR)

it is a force out though -- right?

if the second baseman had caught the ball....a tag of Chas was not necessary

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force_play#:~:text=a%20forced%20runner.-,Tagging%20up%20is%20not%20equivalent%20to%20being%20forced,after%20a%20caught%20fly%20ball.

No check out this link but lots of places you can look it up as well ... not considered a force out. Force out can really only happen going forwards, not backwards to a base you were already at.

I really thought I knew baseball until I researched this ruling after it happened in our HS game and had an animated discussion with the ump ... lol

What was his tweet this offseason? "How quickly they forget"

Yeah, turns out we were right...

Hour and a half before game time and Dubon has already swung at the first pitch.


We have walked 3 Rangers. And their fans are still *****ing about Tucker scoring the winning run last night on their version of Jake Meyers.


They aren't very smart fans
