Bad call or not, the Sox pitchers tossed 3 more complete games after this one. Nuff said. Nobody was gonna touch that team
R Marconi One of the most underrated baseball teams of all time, I would take this team over this year's Cubs
southsider 35 it's a shame the Sox win got buried in the books and isn't more celebrated. What an absolute destruction of the Post Season. If ever there was a team that absolutely could not be stopped it was our 05 Sox
You'll never see this pitching again.
I remember listening to that game on the radio in the Wife's office....I knew that was the turning point.
This team should get honorable mention in baseball history.
15 years ago today!
The first time I can recall someone stealing 1st base.
Duane Vasquez guess you’ve never heard of tim locastro
You could be right, but in the postseason this was a screwups by the A's catcher. Even in regular season play, on the third strike you throw down to first to make sure.
“Total frustration and disgust from the Angels dugout” says Joe Buck lol
Joe Buck was obvious in his dislike for the Sox.
I’m not a Joe Buck fan also but yeah that controversial advance to first base pissed the LA Angels off big time LOL. Ozzie Guillen was my favorite manager for the White Sox.
No one talks about how the pitcher throws the ball down the middle to one of the post seasons hottest hitters with an 0-2 count. Terrible
Crede made lots of pitchers pay horribly.
Chris Saindon wasn’t down the middle it was below his knees
MANCHESTER UNITED ok
@MANCHESTER UNITED Get over it. Americans don't give a damn about soccer.
@M who cares
I absolutely hate Joe buck for his "call" of that double, if you can even call it that. No credit for the 05 sox now, no credit then when it was happening. Jesus.
Buck sounds like he's describing someone running over his dog.
To this day this was the call that made me hate Joe Buck. Not that he was ever good in the first place but this was 100% the call that put me over the edge. I jumped out of my seat celebrating the walk off and all I hear is Joe buck talking shit about the dropped third strike.
Joe Buck is a St. Louis fan. He grew up like his father through the Cardinals organization. Yes I know technically the Cubs and Cardinals are more of the rivals, but he I think simply being Chicago is enough to hate them. He did the same thing to the Cubs too when they made their run. He is a terrible broadcaster honestly. That said I'll give him one positive point. Technically he was correct here. I'd still rather never hear him announce again though.
People give Joe Buck a lot of flak (sometimes rightly so) but "The White Sox have won and this only begins what will be an argument..." was a great call.
Angels can blame this call forever, but the fact remains that they lost this ALCS in five games.
based off the momentum of this loss!!!
Whatever happened is irrelevant. Should've never been in that situation in the first place.
@@peytonjasniewicz5632 It's beyond relevant. Umpires are not perfect. They're going to get calls wrong. And when you get a bad call that goes against you, it's your job to bounce back from that. The Angels evidently couldn't do that and that's the real reason they lost this ALCS so badly. Besides even if that call goes the Angels, all it means is that the game stays tied.
lets say the angels had a 50/50 chance in extra innings, that's a 50% chance of being up 2-0. That's a big deal
A.J. Pierzynski is my fucking hero. This play to me is the reason that the White Sox won the world series. It just broke the Angles in two.
*****
totally agree. but he hustled and pulled off the hoax.
Big John Perez
waaaa. Waaaaa!!!!
Big John Perez
your stupid is showing you fucking whiner. try not to cry too much.
Big John Perez
no, you pretty much are all of those things. Boom Bitch
Big John Perez
and keep up the crying. your salty tears are delicious.
And angels fans are still mad lmao
@MANCHESTER UNITED who cares
@MANCHESTER UNITED F.C Ok, if you want to play this dumb game. CZcams was invented in America you should only use internet services that are not American.
@Jon Snow I harvest angel fan tears feels good man.
@MUFC no you didn't look at the scoreboard small son. We won the war for independence.
I was only two years old at this time. Still salty :(
Alert, heads-up play by AJ. Josh Paul was careless (lazy) by not tagging AJ or at least throwing to First like they teach you to do in Little League for a 3rd strike that is borderline in the dirt or way out of the zone. Watch AJ; He can't see if the ball was caught cleanly or not so its entirely in his best interest to run in the event it was NOT. To not do so would be careless or lazy on HIS part.
click789101112 it was a strikeout and the ball didn’t hit the ground. There was no need to throw it to first.
Sure, but AJ doesn't know that. Watch where's he's looking; he doesn't know if it was caught cleanly or not, if it bounced, or if it got by the catcher entirely and rolled to the wall. And for that matter, Josh Paul doesn't know if the ump made the correct call or not, or any call at all; he was out of there before AJ was. A good catcher tags the batter to be SURE there is no ambiguity.
Josh Paul obviously wasn't watching the game a few days earlier in Boston when Johnny Damon struck out on a VERY similar close-to-the-ground pitch and AJ jumped up and immediately applied the tag. Gosh, why do you suppose he felt the need to do that? It was a strikeout and the ball didn't hit the ground.
The home plate umpire called AJ out when he did the fist signal at 0:23. So when he did that, nothing else matters, and no tag to AJ is needed, and no throw to first is needed. End of inning. And after looking at the replay that starts at 0:42, NO WAY THAT THE BALL TOUCHED THE GROUND!!!! Of course, the home plate umpire cant see it from his angle, but the umpire still did the youre out fist signal.
@@hmhm856 Good call. Way in the dirt. Not even close.
If you blow up this play and look at frame by frame you see the ball bounce up. The ball hits the ground. AJ rightfully runs to first, the catcher should have known better.
Still cant see a bounce. But that doesnt change the fact that the home plate umpire called a swing strike-3 and then the umpire made the fist-out signal, so no further action was needed by the Angels defense at that point.
In the post-game interview, the home plate umpire said that he never made the fist-out signal (even though we clearly see that he did)
Had Angels won this game, up 2-0 with the next 2-3 games being in Cali.
@@hmhm856 Well they didn't, and that play there shifted the memento in the Sox's favor.
When you watch the replay from the first base side it's obvious that the ball hit the dirt. Great presence of mind by A.J. and the White Sox in post season play.

Clearly hit the ground
As a Yankees fan, I thanked the White Sox that year. They took out the Red Sox and Angels who had beaten us in our previous playoff match ups. Lmao! Those White Sox were so underrated.
They had one of the best post season runs in mlb history. They swept the previous WS Champs, they beat in 5 games the other last WS champs from the American League and threw 4 complete games. and swept the WS. They went 11-1 in the post season.
That ball clearly hit the ground, they show it in slowmo on this video. That side view shows it, why tf can't no one else see that?
Doesn’t matter. The umpire called him out. Stop trying to make excuses for this horrible botched call.
But they changed it and called him safe cause it didn't hit the ground. Stop crying like a baby because the final call was correct.
All the butt hurt Angels fans, lol..
@@br1ns4n throw it to first base next time quit being a baby about it.
@@phildasky8668 Call was never changed. Umpire just said that he never did the fist out signal, since this is a non-changeable call.
both Chicago teams beat LA to end their respective droughts
Ball clearly hit the ground, great heads up play by AJ
0:42 replay, no way that the ball touched the ground. Also, home plate umpire gave the fist-out signal at 0:23, so nothing else matters after that, meaning theres no need to tag AJ or throw to first. I remember when the home plate umpire was interviewed, he said that he never gave the fist signal and that cameras were basically wrong.
That had to be the most fixed game I’ve ever watched. That call changed everything with that series.
Catcher had to tag Pierzynski
If you’re the catcher and u see the batter run to first on a low strike that u know mort likely hit the ground you gotta throw that ball to first. I feel the only way the throw doesn’t go to first is bc the catcher really thought he caught it. Why else wouldn’t u throw to first w AJ running?
I swear if the angels don’t win another World Series for the next 60-70 years you would think this has to be a curse on them it would be known as the dropped third strike curse
And what about their inability to beat the Red Sox in 04, 07, and 08? And what about their inability to make the postseason during the Mike Trout era? (only made it once)
Or you could credit the White Sox Starters for dominating that series.
@@hmhm856 they did get there revenge in 09 thou
@@carlosh2390 The Angels are a cursed franchise. If it wasnt for the miracle game 6 and then being able to win game 7 of the 2002 WS, they would be known as a cursed franchise. All those postseason collapses in their franchise history, and their September collapses in the 90's. And now the horrible decade they had in the 2010's with Albert Pujols and Mike Trout. Lets hope that the 2020's are different for them (so far, not so good).
They're not cursed. They just usually have mediocre management. I always thought Mike Scioscia was an overrated skipper. And that 10-year contract for Albert Pujols was all kinds of stupid. Get the right people at the helm and you're in business.
Man I dunno how the ump made that call, good call. Didn't matter the Angels took a crap the rest of the series.
- After that controversial ruling by Doug Eddings, the White Sox rallying from behind for the win, the Angels practically just sagged after that, losing all 3 games at home after this....
That's their fault
Angels would have lost either way.
0-2 pitch with 2 outs.... Angels were one pitch from making AJ a non-story.
And maybe try and stop Ozuna from stealing 2nd
The ball clearly changes trajectory as it bounces up into the catcher's mitt. It was the right call but I cannot figure out how the umpire knew to make that call.
Ball grazed the dirt
He trapped it.
Terrible call that changed the whole series
Their starters went 4 straight complete games. That’s what turned the series around. Their pitchers dominated the angels
Fact: The ball never hit the ground
Also fact: The umpire ruled that it did, and the Angels should have played it.
the umpire did the fist-out signal at 0:23, meaning that from that moment, the batter is out and no tag to hitter is needed and/or no throw to first is needed.
Fact: the ball hit the dirt before it hit the catcher's glove.
Fact2: Wether it did or not, in post season play that was a bad screw up by the A's. 9th inning, 2 out, third strike, why would you not throw to first?
Say what u want. Lol angel fans get over it. Lol. That was smart by AJ
🤬

Had Angels won this game, they would have been up 2-0 with the next 2-3 games being in Cali.
Fun fact: Mark Buerhle, due to a low pitch count, was actually going to pitch the 10th inning. He came out of the dugout after he thought that AJ had struck out
terrible call. he clearly caught the ball before it hit the dirt
No you can see the ball's shadow disappear and reappear immediately before hitting the mitt
You mustn't have actually watched the replays, or you need glasses or something, because it is certainly not "clear" either way. It looks like a textbook trap to me though.
Prove it
@@subg8858either way , the home plate umpire signaled out
This may very well be the worst call in baseball history.
Douglas Sher definitely not lmao there are way bigger more obviously blown calls with bigger ramifications than this one
Too close to call. Always tag to be certain.
I hate the Angels with a passion, but this was a bad call
actually he's probably not going to respond to you because he made that post 2 years ago...
No it was a good call. Way in the dirt.
Too close to call. You always do a "just in case" tag like AJ did to Damon during that series.
To this day, this play hurts. Totally changed the momentum. I Hate AJ
Momentum had already changed. Mark Buerhle dominated the angels.
