Non Baseball Thoughts: Brewers/Pirates 5/5/07
Posted: Sun May 6, 2007 2:47 am
Another crowd over 40,000, giveaway was a poster. I decided about 30 minutes before the game to get a Hardy jersey, long line just to get into the store.
I would have thought the Chorizo would win tonight but it was Hot Dog.
Ok, again my biggest beef when going to games is the rule, MLB rule not a Brewer rule, that they cannot show a replay of any play that is even remotely close. Hardy makes a couple of great plays. Can't see them again. Fielder gets hit and there's an ejection, no replay. Nearly every good play can't be shown unless it's a home run or base hit. I HATE THAT RULE. Yes the umps will be shown to get one wrong once in a while. So what? I can't imagine going to a Bucks game and not seeing replays. The refs are wrong there too and the fans are right on top of them. Let the crowd boo for a blown call, big deal. I really really hate that rule.
Ok, rant over. Chilly and windy outside, very nice inside, the roof closed obviously.
Another very fun night at the ballpark.
