A few thoughts about that highlight. Rose is out by a mile with an accurate throw. Today that would be considered one of the dirtiest plays ever. Also, I'm not entirely sure Rose touched the bag rounding second. Couple of things. #1, as for it being a dirty play, it may have been but Bochy was blocking the plate and back then, when players weren't pussies, if you're a catcher blocking the plate, you better expect to get blown out. #2, yeah it's no secret that an accurate throw gets him but it wasn't an unmanageable throw. Bochy just botched it. He was putting on the tag before he caught the ball. And #3, as for he missing the bag, believe me, if you saw this series you'd know that they would have appealed as it was happening a lot during the last 2 games of this series. The Phillies actually had a appeal go their way.
