A.J. Pierzysnki is yet again involved in another controversial call, better yet it was the same umpire....... Doug Eddings
Yesterday - Eddings called interference on Rays third baseman Willy Aybar, ruling that he bumped the runner after a throw toward second. Replays showed that Pierzynski initiated the contact, hitting Aybar with his left elbow before falling to the ground.
2005 - Eddings was behind the plate when he called strike three on Pierzynski — but not the third out — in the ninth inning of Game 2. Eddings ruled the two-out pitch had bounced in the dirt, and Pierzynski hustled safely to first as the Angels ran off the field. Moments later, the White Sox rallied to win.
