A half-second later, home plate umpire Hunter Wendelstedt stepped from behind home plate, tapped his wrist and delivered the call.“Just immediately felt awful about letting the team down in that spot there,” Finnegan said. “To lose the game that way — it can’t happen.”of the season, four more than any other pitcher.
“By the time I saw it, it was really too late to yell anything,” CJ Abrams said. “Probably couldn’t hear me anyway. It was loud out there. Just a weird ending. I don’t know.” “He’s just slow,” Martinez said. “I mean, that’s who he is. He’s the closer. It burnt him today, but typically it hasn’t burned him. ... He’s been good, so I’m not going to fault him. Just one of those days you’re playing here. We’ll come back tomorrow. If we’ve got the lead, he’ll be in the game again.”
