  2. Hey Dan, maybe you need glasses... Or Pedroia owes you a few bucks for allowing him to run six feet outside the lines tonite. Possibly the worst and easiest call I've ever seen missed. What are your qualifications, because my nephew's pony league needs an ump.

  4. Well Dan Bellino just butchered a call at second base on a tag play with Mark De Rosa that replays show was clearly wrong because Bellino was looking at the wrong hand. The blown call came in the 10th inning and cost the Giants the game. Bellino compounded the error by throwing Bruce Bochy out of the game. Let's hope Billino reviews the replay and is man enough to admit his mistake.

  5. No, lets just hope Bellino finds other work because he is terrible and clearly not cut out to call major league games. That out call on a play that could not have been more obvious cost the Giants the game. Then ejects a manager when he is clearly in the wrong. Jackass
