I must say that I was rooting for the Rockies to win last night, but it didn't really matter to me that much. With my beloved Twinkies out and the hated Yankees in, it's time to focus my attention to more important things, such as football and hockey. So I'm not really biased when I say that Padres fans reallllllly need to stop complaining that they got screwed out of a win last night.
Yes, the tape appears to show that Holliday did not touch the plate, but the camera angles are not exactly crystal-clear in their evidence. Plus Padres manager Bud Black said "It looked to me like he got it," after the game. Plus the Rockies could have a similar complaint about a Garrett Atkins "double" that may have been a home run in the seventh inning that may have rendered the whole extra innings useless.
Plus III: Trevor Hoffman wasn't exactly looking like he was on his game, the sac fly was his one out in the inning. Who's to say he wouldn't have collapsed further and given up another run to the Rockies?
I'm sorry you missed the playoffs, but it's time to man up, hug it out and look forward to next year.
