Final score, inconclusive Posted by: Kristen in Game Recaps on May 26th, 2009 9:12 am

The Nats lost 5-2, but that outcome was hardly certain.  The replay on MASN was pretty obvious.  I’m still angry about it…

Which brings me to this conclusion: Instant replay is a waste of time.

What was the point again?  To be more accurate?  Eight minutes later, still wrong.

Tonight…

Dunn’s still looking for hit #1000 as the Nats take on Livan and an injured Mets lineup.

   It was like “don’t make a fellow umpire look bad”—so it was inconclusive.
   There was nothing inconclusive about it. The ball was on it its way down and the fan touched it. It was clearly not a home run. Can Nats protest that or file an appeal. Those umpires were out to lunch.
   What a waste of 8 minutes. Lannen totally lost his rhythm.

   What is the point? I’m still mad too.

   There was nothing “inconclusive” about it. The fan was clearly leaning over the field - WAY over the field. I think the umpires were too chicken to overturn a call in front of a crowd of Mets fans.
