[Giants]

Thanks, Mick. I don't think Sanchez was blocking the plate in tagging Sabol . Giants scored 3 off that call. Makes up for bad calls going the other way, I guess.

Sanchez was up the line straddling the chalk.  It was a call that could have gone either way since it can be argued that Sanchez moved up the line in order to make a legitimate attempt to receive a throw (which is permissible).  Of course, the counter argument can be made that he was simply trying to block Sabol’s path to home plate.  

Regardless, the call had a significant impact on the outcome of the game.  Once in a while, a judgment call goes in your favor.  Don’t ask questions, just run to the bank and make a deposit.
