Utley had no business sliding into Tejada like he did. He was already forced out but he purposely slid away from the base so that he could take out Tejada.

And to break up the double play. That’s what you’re supposed to do. Utley did nothing wrong.

Until today I have watched replays of the incident and focused on Tejada, trying to see exactly what caused his leg to break.

Today,after the ruling on Utley, I focused on him.

He definitely went for the man not the base.

IMHO a good call by Torre and MLB.
