I hate the way this thread went into a pissing match... anyway ---
This call, and last year's, are perfect examples of why I believe it should be the 1st base umpire calling home runs near the left field foul pole, and 3BU calling them near the RF pole. They have a MUCH MUCH MUCH better view than either the PU or the BU on the same side. I'd be fine with 2BU getting all homers as well, for simplicity sake.
