It really wasn't that guy's fault. It was a natural reaction.

Natural reaction??????? He should have been normal enough to step back if he knew his team needed a out. I found out on the news he didn't go to work today-LOL If the cubs lose he will have to take off Thursday and Friday

Dear lord, thank you. I was so tired of hearing every blame the poor guy today. That one play did NOT make the game. The Cubs had enough opportunities to score that they missed. A game has more than one out. They blew it, not that guy.

This reminds me of an article I read about Game 6 of the 1985 World Series. In that game between the Cardinals and the Royals, 1st base umpire Don Denkinger blew a call with three outs to go. The Cardinals could have won that game and many blame Denkinger for their loss and their 11-0 poleaxing in the next game. Little does anybody know that the Cardinals helped him become a legend. They had one opportunity to record a key out when one of the Royals players popped up and the Cardinals' catcher and the first baseman Jack Clark got confused and failed to make a catch. After an intentional walk to Hal McRae, pinch hitter Dane Iorg singled to right with one out and there was a play at the plate where they could have recorded a second out but the winning run scored. You can't really blame an umpire or a fan for what happened yesterday. Another thing that was mentioned during tonight's game: the fan wasn't the only one reaching for the ball. Several other fans were attempting to catch the ball, too. The fans around him had their gloves in the air and reaching for it so they pretty much would have done the same thing.

I'm not a Cubs fan but I have the cassette of the story of a legendary Cub announcer, the late Harry Caray which features a collection of highlights of the Cubs team and the first radio broadcaster as the voice of the St. Louis Cardinals.

I think it's pretty unfortunate that the fan's name has now been released to the public. Now if the Cubs lose this series, you can bet he'll be gone shortly thereafter. ;)

Do any of you guys know what the next play of the inning was? It SHOULD have been an inning-ending DP, but he guy on the Cubs BOOTED it. If he didn't, they would have gotten out of the inning scot-free! The poor fan shouldn't have this many people out to get him! :rolleyes:

Later. :bye:

Forgive me for saying this but YES!! that fan cost the Cubs, big time!! There has been threats on his life, he may get fired from his job, hate mail off the internet & letters from the mail, beer, food, debris, and foul language thrown at him. He will remember this for the rest of his natural life!!
