Glad someone else noticed this - this morning at coffee I had to listen to a gloating Cards fan complain about the 'whining' Braves fans and how the infielder backed off AFTER he saw the ump's hand go up :roll eyes: It's one thing to be a Cardinal fan - it's quite another to be a blind Cardinal fan.

The announcers saw it incorrectly as well, but that should come as no surprise. They also got on their pedestals about the fans throwing stuff on the field, but while it was clearly a bad thing to do, this was all-or-nothing and they had just seen their team get robbed of a legitimate chance to come back quickly.
