I'm in the middle of a game right now and I stopped to post this. I'm the BoSox (of course) and I'm playing the Twinkies (computer). They had the bases loaded and Gladden fouled one of to the first base side. I used my first baseman to pick up the ball and throw it home. The runner going home was called out and the guy going to first was safe. The ball bounced foul so it should have been a foul ball. It was kinda weird.

maybe you were just drunk or high and got confused...it was probably just a routine fly ball to left but you mistakenly though it was a bases loaded foul ground ball glitch. It happens to me all the time. That's why I won't play RBI without a pirate's patch patch over my right eye. When your drunk, closing an eye helps stablize your surroundings...just a tip
i dont drink or smoke, and i still play with the pirates patch over my eye....to be quite honest, i play with the entire get up...the bandana....the peg leg...the parrot singing the theme song...hell, sometimes i even bring a loaded musket into play....i shoot off the cannons whenever i hit a dinger...todd's brand of intimidation is a bit more devious....he dresses as a cowboy...but, then he'll forget the jeans...so he's just there in chaps....when i start putting together a rally, he'll flash me a glimpse of the upper cheek...i immediatley go into a epileptic rage....cant focus....i develop a twitch and todd can eek out the win.....hes nasty...
i wish i were kidding......

has anyone noticed that when you hit a hard line drive down the line and it hits the half wall and falls down onto the fans that it looks like blood flies out. me and my friends call this a "bleed'n fans" its pretty funny
Yeah, I a big fan of that play. We don't really have a name for it but we always say, "We just killed someone," when it happens.

I'm a firm believer that before John Olerud became a Major League superstar he attended many RBI games with Season tickets down both the right and left field foul lines. Sometimes when I foul ball is hit to him he will catch it cleanly, but other times he likes to play it off of his dome. It's a good thing he wear's his helmet to even attend a game. So when a ball is hit his way we always tend to yell "head's up" to the Olerud family down the foul lines.
Regarding the first glitch duff, it sounds much like the phantom foul ball glitch. Check out the first entry:
