Oh well,
We just got the letter from teh state that says they have now decided that the ruling was wrong.
Our guys will be better umpires for it.
But it is so strange to me that so many ruled the same way but are hung up on teh
last part of the sentance which grammatically does not ONLY give the batter first base.
Almost all the ASA people agreed with the ruling.
The majority of the NFHS people gave teh same ruling.
Most NCAA people ruled the same........
Sounds like somewhere we all got it wrong or the ruling body has got it wrong now.
What do you want to be there will be some cleaning up of the language in teh rule book next year?
Oh well, live and learn.
I am proud of the guy who made the ruling, I know him well.
He will be a better umpire for the situation as will we all.
