It didn't make a difference in the game--maybe run from the walk. There is also an argument to be made that had Holliday not seen the out called, he would have continued running in for backup and would have handled it. What cost the Braves more than anything was the fan-caused delay which did more to shut the Braves down than Mott coming in to finish the 8th and the game.

Time-out granted on a swinging strike three followed by a 2-run home run was a much worse call.


The umpiring of the post season (at least in the NL games I have watched) has sucked tremendously.
