Score 5-3 giants. 9th inning, bases loaded 2 outs for the rangers, mark teixeira is up. Teixeira hits a shot down the right field line that hits the foul line, kicks up chalk....umpire calls it foul ball. Should have been a double scoring at least 2 runs.

I saw on ESPN in the 9th inning 5-3 giants Rangers at bat Bases Loaded. Ball down the right field line and it hits the line. Chalk Flys up and it was clearly fair. This would have given the giants the lead with a bases clearing double. Ump calls it foul and everyone goes crazy. 4 rangers were thrown out of the game, some in earlier innings.

What exactly happened is the Giants won the game. Good call ump. Go Giants.

bases loaded. two out. i think the rangers were down by a run or two. texieria hits a ball down the first base line that hits and kicks up chalk - obviously fair. the 1st base ump calls it foul. arguements ensue. players get ejected. then the batter who replaced texieria pops up to end the inning and the game. texas loses.

the Giants won 5-3 in a wild meeting that featured four Texas ejections -- manager Buck Showalter, Young, Mark Teixeira and Mark DeRosa. Teixeira thought he had a bases-clearing, go-ahead double down the right-field line in the ninth inning but it was ruled foul after appearing to hit the line.
Sounds like they got screwed.
