HERR, OUT A T FIRST? The sixth inning of Game #7 produced a very important and controversial play. With the score tied at 2-2 and one out in the Cardinals' half of the sixth, Tom Herr led off first base. Frank Viola threw to first baseman Kent Hrbek and got Herr in a rundown. Hrbek tossed to Lombardozzi, who ran Herr back towards first base. On this way back to first base, Herr appeared to run into Hrbek which, if interference, would allow him to go to second base safely. However, the first base umpire called Herr out when Lombardozzi tossed to Viola covering first base. The Cardinals argued that Viola's tag appeared to be late. The umpire's call enraged Herr and first base coach, Rich Hacker. There is no telling what would have happened if the umpire had made the opposite call in this case. Maybe a clutch-single by Lindeman or Willie McGee would have knocked Herr in, or maybe he would have been left stranded on the bases. In any case, the Twins went on to win Game #7 and the 1987 World Series. |
