The umpires baffled both coaches.But Hawthorns Alastair Clarkson and Port Adelaides Ken Hinkley say they wont be overly critical of some bewildering calls in their Thursday night AFL fixture.Whether it was for Hawthorn or against Hawthorn ... there was just a patch there where not too many on the ground knew why the free kicks were getting paid, Clarkson said after the Hawks 22-point win at Adelaide Oval.Clarkson partly blamed himself for stoking the fires with his pre-game comments which questioned Ports ability to handle Hawthorns physical style.They (umpires) knew this game was going to be pretty hot. I probably added fuel to the fire yesterday with some of my comments, he said.He said AFL was incredibly hard to umpire.Our game is the most complex and difficult game in the world, Clarkson said.I can only imagine because its so hard to play and coach, it must be really bloody tough to umpire.And we have got to tip our lids off to them really, they do a marvellous job.But like anything, you sit and wonder `geez, why did he handball there, or why did he kick it there - well, sometimes you wonder why did the umpire make that decision.But by and large they do a pretty good job for our code.Hinkley said both teams were confused by the officiating.Not just our team. It wasnt just our way or against, Hinkley said.The umpires have a tough job, theres no doubt about that. But theres some clarity in some things which would be nice.Its a challenge. Its a fierce contest. They umpire what they see and sometimes they might not always get it right but I dont think that is deliberate in any way, it just happens.I wont be having a crack at umpires because I think they do a great job.But its a hard game to umpire, its as simple as that.

PHILADELPHIA -- Whether the motivation came from within or from a challenge from his manager, Tommy Joseph certainly has responded.Joseph homered, doubled and drove in three runs Wednesday night, leading the Philadelphia Phillies over the Chicago White Sox 8-3.Earlier this month, Joseph was struggling and found himself on the bench. Since then, hes hit .480 in his last seven games.Josephs homer off White Sox ace Chris Sale was his 21st of the season, third-best among big league rookies.Manager Pete Mackanin had stated Joseph needed to be better at the plate. Joseph said a self-assessment is what helped him break out.The challenge came from within myself, Joseph said. When it comes from Pete, it gets out there publicly.Joseph hit an RBI double in the first inning. He connected for a two-run homer off Sale (16-9) in the third.I was just trying to attack strikes, Joseph said. Hes a good enough pitcher where if he gets ahead of you, hes going to make you pay. So that was our collective game plan as a team, to capitalize on his mistake early in the count.Cameron Rupp, Maikel Franco and Cesar Hernandez all had two-hit games for the Phillies. Hernandez hit his 10th triple of the season, tied for second best in the majors, and has reached base safely in 26 consecutive games.Philadelphia has won four of five. The White Sox have lost five in a row.It was the second-shortest outing of the season for Sale, and it snapped his run of six consecutive starts of at least eight innings. In four starts this season against NL teams, Sale is 0-4 with an 8.72 ERA.Jerad Eickhoff (11-13) pitched seven innings and gave up six hits, including three solo home runs, while striking out six.Eickhoff was relieved to get some offense from his teammates as he entered the game with the third-worst run supporrt in the NL.ddddddddddddo get that run support is huge off a guy like Sale, Eickhoff said. Its just awesome. These guys are battling, fighting their way through each at-bat. We just found ways to put runners on base and get guys home.Adam Eaton led off the game with a home run Todd Frazier hit his 38th in the seventh and Alex Avila followed with a drive in the seventh.Phillies outfielder Tyler Goeddel had to leave the game in the sixth after being hit in the head by reliever Chris Beck.Goeddel was the fourth Philadelphia player to be hit in the game, tying a franchise record that last occurred in 1960. Sale hit three batters.Everyone is entitled to have a bad night and tonight was mine, unfortunately. It would have been nice to sneak out of here with a win but I was just awful tonight, Sale said.ODDITYEickhoff has allowed seven home runs in his last two starts, but only six earned runs. Six of the seven homers have been solo shots. The seventh was a three-run homer, but all three runs were unearned because of an earlier error. Eickhoff has given up 29 homers this season, tying Brandon Finnegan of Cincinnati for the most in the NL.THIS AND THATEatons homer led off the game. It was the fifth time hes done that this season and ninth time in his career. ...
