The Marlins were gutted and cleaned last night by the Red Sox, and someone thinks it's unsportsmanlike.And Marlins manager Jack McKeon accused the Red Sox of running up the score in one of their greatest offensive performances ever.Indeed, Boston pitching perhaps isn't bad enough to give up, say, 14 runs in one inning, but such a feat hadn't been unheard of, even before last night. Perhaps it would be considered unfair to the fans, but it might be appropriate to allow (if it's not allowed already) a team to concede early. At any point before that concession, though, there's a game on, and I have trouble with the idea that a team should quit playing. If such concessions did take place once in a while, this would be even less arguable in my mind; if the game is so over that your opponent shouldn't be playing any more, why are you still playing? |
