Wells was credited with the single. <BR/><BR/>It's too bad for Cleveland that the out was not recorded. Having that said, I was acually excited to see Buckner make such a blatent mistake. He blew the call. He knew he blew the call. The greatest part is that he realized immediately that he'd made a mistake.<BR/><BR/>To his credit, when Blake obviously disagreed, Buckner just ducked his head and listened to the rant. Finally Buckner had to eat crow. <BR/><BR/>The manager for Cleveland came out, chewed on CB for a while and then got the crew cheif involved. <BR/><BR/>It was obvious that they all agreed the ball was caught, but they could not change the call. <BR/><BR/>It's too bad that fans even know the name of an umpire. We only know them because they screw up. It seems most fans know CB all too well.Uncle Charlie Yakkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16219012947338536164noreply@blogger.com
