if they batted out of order the first time and angels were going to wait till they batted again,then nothing can be done if the 2nd time up was the right way ,and that is what had to happen ,sosa thought he would pull a quick one and catch them if it hurt him and he tried but he was saying that it was not the same in the first so it looks to me that the first time around it was wrong and when he tried to catch them when it hurt him the ump looked at his card and they were right at that time. angels need to learn the rule book better it has to be brought up at the time of the infraction,so even if they lost it would not of been over turned.
because if they were out of complience to what home plate ump's card had he would of looked at it and called the hitter out and all baserunners go back to where they were at the time of the last at bat.
so the first time was the wrong time and that is when it should of been said. will watch sports center and find out but i am sure that is the case if hp ump didnot make a call after reveiw,. it is almost impossable to win a protest in a mlb game inwhich it would revert a win to a lose or play over .
i saw one the other day that i knew and so did the pitching coach for the reds a base runner was on base for the red the ball from opp pitcher bounced and got stuck in the underside of chest protecter,well the reds pitching coach comes running on to field and starts to yell why the other coaches from both team and the ump was wondering what was going on after a few mins the shoe him off and shame on ump crew and reds manager because the rule states if a pitched ballgets lodged in any part of the catcher gear and he must retrive it out,all baserunners are awarded a base. i knew the rule and so did reds pitching coach but no one else did then later in the game they found the rule. thats why college and pro coaches should know the rule book and case book which that would and is in like they know their paycheck. and even wose for the ump crew not to know it.
