My point was that we didn’t leave it up to anyone. Cole pitched a badass 9th inning leaving nothing to chance. The ump didn’t do his job plain and simple. Can’t blame us for “leaving it up to an ump” to when the ump seemed to refuse to call strike 3 in the ninth. If not blaming our players is blaming the umpires then fine.
