As for the Grandal play, I agree @22and25. If my team was down 0-2 in a best of five series with a chance to get an edge, I hope my team would take it too. Grandal and the White Sox forced the umpires to make the call and they didn't make it. Simple as that.
But let's be real here, this was a very easy call that was missed by the home plate umpire who would eventually get trucked less than a second later. I wonder if the contact affected his judgement or if he is trying to watch two things at the same time. Grandal running to first and you have a rather large and fast human being barreling down third base line to home plate where the umpire is standing. Nobody had the homeplate umpire's view, so I'm not sure any of the other umpires felt comfortable changing his call. There is little doubt in my mind they are looking at it today and realizing they made a bad call.
JMO.
