Wtf! Why wouldn't you challenge that?

 

I'm not so sure you can review that. I'm not going on buck's word. You can challenge whether or not a ball actually hit a batter, but I'm not sure the judgement call of determining whether or not a player deliberately took one can be reviewed.

Time to bail the Dickhead again.

 

That's just brutal! He left 4-2 with three runners on, one out. I won't call that a dickhead,

He has three baserunners he's responsible for,plus the two he's given up is not good.

It's not review-able...

 

Hit By Pitch. Those plays for which there is a possibility that a pitched ball touches a batter, or his clothing. See, e.g., Rules 5.09(a) and 6.08(B). Any doubt as to whether a pitched ball hit the bat (as opposed to the batter or his clothing) should be resolved by the Home Plate Umpire at that moment as hitting the bat and not the batter, and the Umpire should declare a fair or foul ball under the circumstances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, whether the ball was in the strike zone when it touched the batter, and whether the batter made any attempt to avoid being touched by the ball, shall not be reviewable. See Rule 6.08(B).

Honestly in spite of how that looked in slow motion, to get the call overturned there would have to be clear evidence that the ball wouldn't have hit him before moving into it. To me it looked like it would have likely hit him either way, he just took it off the pad rather than elsewhere. Could he have avoided it if he really wanted to? Maybe, but probably not conclusively enough to overturn it.

So, to those that were all like "Deadpool, you're dumb for your blind dislike of Dickey!", hi! I hope you're having a wonderful evening!

I don't think dickey liked this move. I would have left him in

 

Doesn't particularly bother me if Dickey doesn't like this move. I'm not convinced he's earned the shot to get himself out of this.
