After watching this video I kinda think so. There is at least one if not two errors on the play.

You're right, I was just being nice by calling it a error on the scorekeeper's part. It's a total misuse of power and bad judgement.cowboysrule48 said:Rickzcards said:After watching this video I kinda think so. There is at least one if not two errors on the play.

It wasn't an error by the scorekeeper. He knew what he was doing. If Tulo wasn't going for the cycle, then you can bet that would have been ruled an error.

The only ones that aren't are the ones just slapped down the first baseline by guys like Michael Bourn and Jose Reyes who can fly, and ocassionly the ones hit in the right center gap with a CF with a crap arm.steve-a-reno said:Not even close to being a triple.

UMich92 said:The Cubs defense was sloppy, but I think you could argue that it's not an error. Yeah that may be generous, but it's not egregious. Soriano jogged after that ball like he expected Tulo to stop with a 2B (loafing is not an error). He mishandled the ball when trying to pick it up (this is where I would rule an error on the play). And then the relay throw was off target. Being that no one advanced a base on the poor throw, the relay probably shouldn't be ruled an error.
As an official scorer, I would give Soriano an error for misplaying the ball when he tried to pick it up.

Not a surprise, just BS homer scoring which I think shouldn't be a part of the game.Penno said:The call didn't surprise me much honestly. Triples, as mentioned above, are subjective very often, so for him to get the call at home with a cycle on the line doesn't come as a surprise to me.

The relay throw would have been in plenty of time if it wasn't so horrible. That is a clear error. This cycle is officially a joke.

Exactly, it's no different than an errent throw to first base where the runner would normally be out, even if the runner doesn't go to second. The player CLEARLY would have been out.
Double with an error should have been the clear scoring of the play.
