There are bad calls, horrible calls, and then every now and then there are calls so bad it's difficult to conceive how an umpire could possibly make such a call.
Longoria's tag of Rollins in the first inning falls into the latter category...I figured, ok, I guess a bug must have flown in his eye, forcing him to take his eyes off the action.
According to nbcsports, the umpire had this to say:
“I saw Longoria coming in and he was going for Rollins’ back on the tag. I just saw him swing and miss,” Welke said. “I never saw a tag.”
I find his statement impossible to believe. Perhaps Welke had money on the over?
