Scenario:
I am the first base coach so the play literally happened 3 feet in front of me. Ground ball in between 1st and 2nd. 2nd base fields it and it running to step on first. She stepped short and missed the base. Base ump calls her out. I said "she's not on the base" girl then puts her foot on the base, but the base ump saw it and signaled her safe. So the base ump changed her own call.
The play was never appealed by anyone to the home plate ump. He interjected and said we had to go with the out call as it is a judgement call and couldnt be changed.
My question has nothing to do with this play as to whether she was out or safe, but rather is this correct in that you cant correct a judgement call?
