Can you not tag the side of a base? Because on the replay, the way Tejada's foot comes to a sudden stop, it looks very much like his toe contacts the bag. Not even a neighborhood play.

The trainers put Tejada's leg in a pump-able air cast before carting him off. That rarely happens without a serious leg injury having occurred.

That poo poo would have been flagged if it happened the NFL and instead Utley got to go back to second after a review.

Fair. I thought a torn muscle seemed more likely than a broken leg, in any case. Either way, oy.

Cal was brought into Major League Baseball by Earl Weaver, who in the great beyond probably thinks that Utley's a wuss for not trying to also punch Tejada in the nuts during that slide.

Utley is a completely marginal player at this point, all a suspension does is save him from getting booed, maybe beaned. Who cares.

Take out slides are so vague. Utley isn't out of the base path, but he's clearly going for the player and not the bag. Rules say he's out, but that's never called. They stop the catcher collisions, but second base is still okay for some reason.

So it seems Collins couldn't have challenged Utley never touching the base (after breaking Tejada's leg). Apparently the rules allow for the replay official to place runners where they would have been if the call they're reviewing had been made correctly

watch cal and the rest of the crew use the passive voice about tejada

"his fibula was broken" instead of "chase utley intentionally went in on him and as a consequence, tejada's leg is broken"
