I think many on this board would agree that it is a little too late for that claim, Claven!
Probably so. I just wish the rulebook meant what it said, said what it meant, and did not mislead the reader with ambiguities. There's something wrong when a group of experienced umpires, all with a rulebook in their hands, can't agree on how a play should be called.
"Claven"? I give up!
And I still want to know: batter swings and misses, but ball hits plate just before bat reaches ball. Do we call that a ball?
