Nice play Guzman.

Buck and McCarver keep harping on the tags not being made, but umps make those calls all the time when the ball and glove are right there to meet the runner. These guys watch enough games to know that.

This game actually needs to end in a tie so they can do away with the silliness of awarding home field advantage to the league that wins the ASG.

Russel Martin deserves credit hes been outstanding defensively in this game

That's my fantasy catcher right there!

That looks worse written out than it did in my head...aw geeze, that's even worse...

Also, we're actually seeing super slow mo shots that the umpires have no access to.

This has been a great game -- the NL loves playing houdini ...

You sounded a little like AZ on that one.

Here's our new infield! The one we've all been waiting for!

1b - I'm not even sure who's left there
2b - Belliard
ss - Flop
3b - Guz

Why? It actually makes the game meaningful. Who cares if it's completely irrelevant?

The MLB All Star Game is the only professional all star game worth watching and it's not even close. This crap is awesome.

This is why I am glad I do not have to watch Nats games on FOX, I hesitate to say it, but even Bob Carpenter is better than these guys.
