2016 MLB thread. THE CUBS HAVE BROKEN THE CURSE! Chicago Cubs are your 2016 World Series champions

utley didnt even touch the bag
also he wasnt even sliding, dude was straight gunning for his legs

shouldnt he be out. dude ran off the base paths, too

 

[ricerocket1]

i don't get it, he left the basepath, didn't touch the base, went to the dugout, and hes safe?

 

[nick.]

Utley didn't even touch a base and he's safe?!

MLB replay review at its finest

Utley made no attempt at trying to touch the base, he's gotta be fined or something

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Hey it's #partofthegame right?

People were killing me where I said this stuff asinine.

Saw this on Twitter, can't say it's not true:

"If David Wright slid like that mets fans wouldn't shut up about how he's a leader and will do anything to win. Utley wants to win."

 

[shatterkneesinc]

this POS SOB was aiming for legs not base

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Utley can give zero ***** about breaking Tejada's leg, what a piece of ****

 

[ricerocket1]

lolololololololol

 

[nick.]

some players give their take:

@ShaneVictorino: Always called him one of my toughest teammates...Utley showing why I always called him a winner!!! #MLBPlayoffs

@lamelaza_7: that was a really weak attempt at a slide by utley[emoji]128545[/emoji][emoji]128545[/emoji][emoji]128545[/emoji][emoji]128545[/emoji]

Never wanna see anyone get hurt but I have seen worse but the magnitude of this one will bring up a lot of debate for sure!!! #MLBPlayoffs

 

[jewbacca2]

So they can't review or live ball appeal that Utley didn't touch the bag?

What the hell is going on?

[jaysfiend23]
