Wow. Every time I turn on the WS, the umps are screwing the Rays.

Kazmir had that last batter he pitched to struck out twice. Instead the ump call two strikes balls and the batter walks.

Incredibly bad job by this crew.

2. The umps are being consistent in the Series now.
Bad calls to both teams, but it's 70/30. 70% Rays, 30% Phillies.

Not taking anything from the Phils. They are playing GREAT ball.

4. I've only watched maybe 40% of the play.
But all the bad calls I've seen have been against the Rays, and I think they have all hurt the Rays, up until now.

Rays escaped this time.

3. How are you going to feel when they call the game
because of rain.

What a weird way to end a Series - in the pouring rain...

5. I think that the Phils lead will keep them from calling it.

9. I say if the Rays tie it, then call it.
That's fair.

11. Maddon can call the field unplayable.
They never restart, as noted on the play by play.

12. I agree. And it's tied now.
Let's see if it's called now.

14. Pah, they've been equally bad for both teams.
This umpire crew has not acquitted themselves well.
