I'm sure it has happened before but it has to be fairly unique.

I'm sure it has happened before but it has to be fairly unique. I know that it happened at least once in MLB since 2016. However, I believe that it is the first walk-off hit by pitch for the Mets since 2014. |

Saw the video, he sticks his elbow in the strike zone. Shouldn’t have been a walk off.

Conforto, you’re better than that.

Conforto, you’re better than that. I blame the ump for calling it. Catchers frame balls that get called strikes all the time. For decades, you only had to sorta be near second base when turning a double play. Conforto tried to get away with something for sure, but the ump shouldn't have awarded him first base. |

I wouldn't say he leaned into it, but if ur over the zone and you get hit, that's BS man. Should've never been allowed

It's pretty bad when the ump started to ring him up for strike 3 and then changed his call. |

Strike 3 meant extra innings........HBP meant beer/30........He did the math  |

He would have been the second out.

If the ump gives it to you, then you've done what you had to do to get the winning run in. |

Call it the George Horton influence. Just one more instructional benefit of playing in the Pac-12 during that era.
