Sorry, due to storms in the Atl area, I have been without the internet since Saturday. It's amazing how dependent we get on it!
Teacherspit:
There is no need for me to respond further to this absurd ruling of calling abandonment, or making a travesty out of the gaem. As others have put so well, this is absolutely a protestable situation, as it is a misapplication of the rules. Hiding behind, "in my judgment" does not remove this problem from the protest arena.
What you have tried to call is simply wrong, and is a disservice to the players, the coaches and to other umpires that have to follow you.
The rules of the game are both simple and complicated at the same time. You are trying to make up new rules. Don't try creating new law when the old ones work just fine.
