BREW MORE COFFEE AGAIN. I have posted before (see here) about amazing occurrences when everybody on a baseball field—on both sides—forgot what the pitch count was. I made the analogy to the financial crisis where a lot of the problems were visible before the crisis happened. Baseball players and umpires lost track of the count again, in a major league game, and this time it led to the winning run in a 1 to 0 game. See here. The batter who scored the only run got on base after being awarded a base on balls on only three balls. The plate umpire’s hand indicator showed only three balls, the scoreboard was wrong, and everybody went with the scoreboard.
