Turning on me....
FUBLUE / kellerumps...my friends...thanks for turning on me so fast....first of all kellerumps it was "umpire obstruction" not interference. :-) And second of all with who FUBLUE will have in IL leading his National....your absolutly right...I'm glad I'm in Bloomington too...and I'm thinking most of you wish you were too. My question to Steve please....Granted I went to my partner on the appeal but I pulled the runner off of first to do so. And I'm concerned with the wording of the Rule 10. "The plate umpire may rectify any situation in which the reversal of an umpire's decision or a delayed call by an umpire places a batter-runner, a runner or the defensive team in jeopardy". By pulling the runner off of first I placed the batter-runner in jeopardy of the appeal ("delayed call by an umpire")and gave an advantage to the defensive team? This is one of those 1 in 1000 calls but it does bring up a lot of scenio's doesn't it?
