While watching the Nebraska vs Florida WCWS game tonight (in it's 11th inning)...

softballphreak,
I don't think you got the jest of it.

So wasn't the FL CF catch in the 7th inning a good catch?

 

[MTR]

I don't think she touched the bag. I remember thinking obstruction and she touched. Then they shoed a different angle and she didn't appear to touch

If it were called as OBS, it wouldn't matter. The play would be dead and the runner awarded 3B.

Of course it wouldn't matter.

I wasn't saying it was obstruction. I was just thinking it was close and that, at the time, I could see it being called.

I am of this same thinking.

Ball in glove - glove rolls over on contact with ground - ball still seated in same spot of glove - "catch", "out", "game over".

At least how I saw it.

Florida had to win it twice

Major kudo's to Nebraska for battling at the top level and proving equality for the Big-10's best!

im not going to completely bash jeri because she saw 550 pitches and had a pretty good strike zone, but I hope she was not being evauluated in this game. She was out of position on all 3 of her calls at 3rd base. She needs to put her rear in gear and get to the proper position. I think she completely kicked that call at 3rd, and was very lucky it was brushed off as no big deal. I understand its a womans game but why can't we get the best umpires on the feild

I disagree.

I did. I was jesting, also. After all, bullets have to have permission to leave.
