With the Braves having finally won the World Series last year after Eric Gregg stole one from them , I wanted to do what I do at times when I can go back and be calm and evaluate exactly what happened in what was unquestionably the most horrendously called strike zone in a baseball game that I have ever seen. So I had a reliable friend send me a DVD copy of the game, and I will be watching it in inning segments over the next little bit (maybe I'll get more than one inning done tomorrow).
Let's note FIRST OF ALL that even before the game, Joe Morgan (who was one helluva ballplayer but who, quite frankly, sees what he wants to see as an analyst and comes across as a buffoon at times) sorta warned us before the game what to expect with Eric Gregg.
And we'll see Joe wasn't wrong by any definition of the word.
