There are 2 umps. Batter hits a line drive single to CF and aggressively rounds 1st base. SS throws behind the runner diving back. Safe. 1st baseman holds tag on her and as she starts to stand up (supposedly) her hand is on the orange safety base only. Ump says nothing. Opposing coach calls time and goes out to talk to 1st base ump. Walking away he announces and points that, "you two (umps) need to talk". After a brief conversation, they call the runner out.
Is the orange base not part of the bag in this situation?
Also, if the 1st base ump saw her hand only on the orange base, why didn't he call her out there and then in real time?
Why do umps allow coaches to intimidate them? " you two need to talk". If I was the ump, I would have called her safe just to take control of the game. I mean who does this coach think he is? Telling the umps what they need to do. Umps please be stronger.
