Kind of a strange call if you ask me.

Really strange. None of the Padres players knew what the hell was going on so the triple play is not very impressive. Bad officiating.

ump called it foul, then changed the call without even bothering to look down at the ball lying in foul territory. completely changed the outcome of the game. one of the strangest worst calls i ever saw.

Guys, it was absolutely the right call. He bunted the ball, it started foul and went fair before it was picked up by the catcher. As we all know, the ball is not foul until touched by a player in foul territory.

However, the ump did call it foul at first and then signaled fair ball. It was a fair ball and the correct call.

yeah but you still have to beat them. Who knows, with Kershaw Billingsley and Lilly we can at least stay in the race.

It was the correct call, but was signaled in incorrect fashion. At that point you almost have to stick to calling it foul even if it rolls fair since the ump had already told the Padres' baserunners to go back to their bag. Not a fan of the way it went down.

I said in my original post that he did call it foul at first.

I saw it. Ump's initial foul ball signal totally confused the runners. May have been the correct call, but imo the luckiest triple play ever and effectively ended any chance the Padres had of tying or winning the game.
