In this case it changed the score.
It's all my fault :-[
That's obvious.

Tied 3-3 Possum and I are off the hook

Having Brown ask Walker to explain almost every single thing that happens in the game has gotten really old.

Time for me to tune out. I don't watch ghost runner baseball.

so what happened on Reynolds at bat? and the tag play review? I need to find a replay of this.

It was a pretty bad out call in the first place, from our seats you could clearly see he was safe.

But even better, Reynolds never stopped running and didn't spectate, and was standing on third had the call been upheld, with one out.

That is awesome baseball, and if MLB wants to pump up the game, they need to start focusing on plays like that, or the plays in the OF marisnick made in chicago. I see heads up, under the radar baseball every day, and it would be so much better on the hilight shows if they would focus on some of these hidden plays that never show up on the scoresheet. That's how you get people to enjoy the game aside from waiting on a HR
