| 0:32.0 | Shortstop Garcia further back on the left of the pitch swung on knuckling line drive. |
| 0:35.9 | Caught by Bell on the short hop. He tries to throw to third and safe there did he catch it in the air did he catch it in the air the batter hayes did not run but they didn't go to the bag to get the out at first |
| 0:50.3 | all kinds of confusion on the field so derrick shelton's arguing. Nationals are leaving the field thinking they have a double play, doubling Swinsky off third. So the ruling that Bell caught it in the air. Yes. So on a soft line drive, it's a line drive double play in C-shek just like that is out of the inning. Well, the umpires are going to huddle. |
| 1:14.3 | Nationals are leaving the field, but they may have to come back on the field, |
| 1:15.5 | depending on what is ruled here. |
| 1:18.4 | They just signaled that the run at the plate scores. |
| 1:18.8 | Okay. |
| 1:23.5 | Well, so what they're saying is because Adrianza tagged out the runner rather than stepping on the base. |
| 1:26.7 | But again, is that a timing play? Because Swinsky never tagged up because the Nationals didn't appeal that he left early and failed to tag up. Because if Adrians had tagged third base first before tagging the runner, then the runner who broke for the plate is out. Right. But then it's like he left early, but they never appealed. They got the third out before the appeal. It becomes a timing play. I don't know how to say this nicely. How about that? But once again, they deem that Adrianza never touched the base, which he clearly did. He touched the runner in the base. So therefore, there was no appeal. They said they run scores and their judgment. We couldn't appeal because we went off the field, being that they called an out. Anything's over? So what do you do? Stand on the field? No. And then all of a sudden, when Shelton came out, they told Sechick to hold off. But there we stand with the run scored. You know, I felt like we did everything right. |
| 2:19.1 | We caught the ball. You know, he threw it. He tagged the runner and the base. |
| 2:23.3 | They said he didn't touch the base. |
| 2:25.3 | And welcome to Nat's chat for Thursday, June 30th, 2020, along with Massensports.com, |
