Was wathing with my DD and she asked how is that girl out, and I told her because the umpire said so. I think she is finally understanding it is waht ever the ump calls.
I don't mean to blame the victim here, but what is accomplished by the coaching yelling at the umpire and pointing in his face? I know it's not uncommon, but I still don't get it.
I'm curious if he thought she missed the bag or if his call was that she didn't beat the ball. The runner did appear to stutter step or something right at the bag.
Looks like she distracted the Ump, and caught his eye by not running thru the bag correctly... IMHO going to watch it again...
Watchin the TN vs FL game right now.
I am blown away at the call at first against FL. That was by far the worst call i have ever seen.
I mean there is leeway ya give to umps on close calls but obviously that ump needs to find another profession.
