a few years ago. I am PU in a late season Varsity playoff implication game. R1, ball hit to F6. All you hear from offense is"break it up!!" Kid from first is a freaking tank with jets. He gets beat by throw, then slides HARD, pivot man eludes, no throw, R1's large rear is sitting on bag, legs pointing to left field. Easy, huh?? Not for my prick-head partner.( I really cannot stand this mo-jo)He signals the R1 out....and thats it, no FPSR.(clear-cut, illegal slide hindered pivot man). D coach cometh, he's fuming!! Gets to pard, next thing I know, pard is pointing at me. I just said, "yours all the way". Then I stood back and enjoyed the scene.....LOL
Why not help your partner get the call right, since he asked? He may have been thinking about the turn to first and not concentrating on FPSR.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

Why not.....hmmmmm......well, there was no pivot, there was an illegal slide with no throw, his all the way. Plus, I can't stand the SOB and really enjoyed watching him get his arrogant a$$ chewed on. come to think of it, this guy also fell asleep on a check swing appeal in "A" on me one time.I pointed and asked, he was looking at some high school girl in the stands, he looked real stoopid that time. Check appeals I will always point down for, why not, I just basically said "ball", if pard wants to call "strike", fine by me!!
