Obvious blown call by blue. Had the call been correct we likely score two and take the lead. Whole makeup of the game could have changed after that.. ESPN called it right when they said 'nobody got worked up over it' on the OSU side. Casey blew it (and admitted to it and took responsibility for it) by not asking for a review. Had the review been done, the call gets reversed. Really hard to argue with the dent in the yellow pad! We plate 1 on probably a 'double'. Not sure that would have had the impact of 'getting it right in the first place' Either way, water under the bridge, nothing we can do but talk about it on a internet forum It's unfortunate that Pat didn't ask for the review, but it's egregious that the Umps didn't initiate it themselves. Nonetheless, Pat will have guys focused tomorrow. LSU will get our best effort, I have no doubt about that.

Here's what I think is BS. The ESPN announcers said that the play can only be reviewed if OSU asks for it. But there is also room for a review if the umps disagree amongst themselves.
All it took was for one ump to say, "um, I think it might have hit the line". If any of them were out there ready to overturn it only if Casey asks, then that's BS.
Just get the damn call right. Is that so hard???

situation reminds me of the Huskie football game.....just because a play should be reviewed doesn't mean it will be. Also, why doesn't the NCAA have a rule that truly egregious calls can be signalled from the people who are there to review the plays in the first place! How can they sit there in the review booth and say, wow, that was a blown call without saying anything, if it falls within the rules of what is reviewable! Cue Huskie game........

Never gonna happen. Should OSU lose Saturday, we will forever yell "Fair Ball" whenever talking about the 2017 College World Series. Much like how Buffalo Sabres fans yells, "No Goal" after the 1999 Stanley Cup Final.

For what it is worth, that crew is probably sick to their stomach right now. The last thing an ump wants to do is make a faulty call that radically changes the outcome potential (note I say potential; overall the way Lange was dealing, we would have possibly ended up getting the run, but no more). As it is, though, that is easily at least a two run inning because with guys on first and 2nd, Nick most certainly would have put down a bunt for a safety squeeze.
So an entire crew has to sit there for the rest of the day and into tomorrow knowing that they f'd up royally, and that will not be forgotten. It happens, it's baseball, but hell, why now?

Not sure that would have had the impact of 'getting it right in the first place' Either way, water under the bridge, nothing we can do but talk about it on a internet forum I don't think anyone except Jenkins would have even had a good look at it and that was from a distance. Plus he wasn't looking directly down the line like the umpire. The umpire was a lot closer and he was the one getting the best look at it. I still don't know how you can miss that call if you are the third base umpire going down the line. Definitely changed the game. The Beavers didn't get anything going after that and it gave Lange all the momentum going forward. In the end, at least the Beavers still have life. That is why winning the first two games is so important. Would have been a bad way to close the season if the Beavers would have been the one needing to win to continue. The Beavers had a mulligan. I have faith the Beavers will win tomorrow. Today, I knew Lange would be tough thats why the missed call was so important.

So... what do you think PC is doing? Not hiding away, but perhaps eating a lot of Tums. Besides, this is the time the team rallies around him and pulls him (and each other) up. In baseball you have to have a short memory, for everything bad on the field.
