GDT(1/3): Houston Astros @ Toronto Blue Jays - Oberholtzer vs. Buehrle - 7:07 PM ET

Who came up with this rule?

 

It is so f***ing retarded.

 

The "foot in the crease" rule from the late 90s in hockey is probably the only dumber rule I can think of off the top of my head.

[Orgfiller]

OUT!! filler

[fatcowxlive]

There's a lane though

 

Good call!

[Dylan]

They need to take out this challenge, going to happen way too often

[S33n]

All of these new rules are turning out to be full f***ing retard.

[NorthOf49]

WTF is this rule supposed to prevent? Navarro blocked the plate without the ball...

 

There's a lane though

 

Good call!

There was a lane AFTER Navarro caught the ball. At that point he's allowed to block the plate.

[Anemic0ffense]

I was one of the few people on this board opposed to the rule before the season. Knew this would happen.

[jays4life19]

So dumb.

[eastcoastjaysfan]

This ump is embarrassing himself. He's having a terrible night.

No, he's not. He left the road open to the runner.

Nope, Navarro was left of the lane, hell Hoes slid cleanly across home without running around Navarro, I don't know why there was a review in the first place

He was standing on the plate until he got the ball and at that time actively hampered the runner's ability to get to the plate.

The runner wasn't even near the plate though when navarro was catching the shorthop though, he started his slide as soon as Navarro got the ball in his glove

[Dylan]

These keep being called ump reviews lol

[Atothe]

Bautista is seeing everything well

[JohnnyLonghorn]

Jose draws a walk from an 0-2 count

[theblujay]

[fatcowxlive]

WE EATIN lol

[eastcoastjaysfan]

This guy can't throw strikes.

[Angrioter]

DP here. I want Santos SAVEZZZ

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

Think there needs to be some rewording to that rule... Such as no blocking the plate without the ball provided the runner has begun his slide! Something to that effect ! Fack I was a catcher play it like I did 3 feet up the line and allow the runner to slide between your legs ! Tko the runner across the face with the tag !
