Major League Baseball umpires can't even make the correct call using instant replay these days. The A's were robbed of a game-tying home run in the top of the ninth against the Indians last night when the umpires blew the call on the field AND after seeing the replay. The only positive of all this is that angry Oakland players took to Twitter immediately after the game for a series of amusing thoughts. Well, I'm sure it wasn't amusing to them, but it was amusing to us, as you can see.

The Eyeroll Seen 'Round The World

So the big story in the blogosphere today is that Elisha Cuthbert, actress and girlfriend of Maple Leafs defenseman Dion Phaneuf, was caught rolling her eyes at April Reimer, wife of Toronto goalie James Reimer after he allowed a game-ending goal to the Bruins in overtime last night. However, each lady has come out and said this is much ado about nothing.

The Phil Hughes NHL Playoff Roundup

As Hot Clicks told you yesterday, Yankees pitcher Phil Hughes is going to be our NHL playoff contributor. Here are his latest thoughts.(Follow Hughes on Twitter for more hockey talk.)

First off I gotta say that these playoffs have been ridiculous so far. Lead changes, last minute goals, overtime, huge hits -- very entertaining.The Rangers big Game 4 win had the beauty goal of the night. ...The Leafs seemed to have their Game 4 matchup in hand before all went wrong. Ya, emotions were running high. ... I'm taking all three home teams tonight. I like Pittsburgh to take the series lead (Tomáš Vokoun will seize his opportunity and step up big for the Pens), Montreal to steal a game at the always tough Bell "Centre," (P.K. Subban will back up his comments) and Chicago to wrap things up. ... Phil's Pretty Lady of the Day is model Leanna Decker (who is on Twitter.)
