There's a strange note in Batavia's coverage of last night's G2 against the ValleyCats, mainly, Andrew Robinson's bases-loaded walk in the 5th may not have actually been a walk:
There was some controversy on the call, as the Muckdogs scoreboard and many in the game believed there was only a three-ball count on Bergman. Home plate umpire Chris Tipton — the same ump who tossed most of the Muckdogs’ coaching staff last week — conferred with the other umpires on the diamond, but ultimately decided that Bergman drew the walk.

There were four balls on that walk, Pankovits and players confirmed after the game. We had four but everybody else in the press box had three; my guess is the scoreboard had it wrong and that threw everybody else off.
Damn you, Kevin. I'm trying to start a conspiracy here...
