Atl Blue, Im glad you mentioned this other call because I saw it too and had the same reaction: it doesnt matter if Bako was on the bag or not, he's out, yes? I wasnt surprised that the commentators got it wrong (Steve Stone: "now if he'd been off the bag when he was hit, he'd be out"), but there was the 3B ump staring right at it and gesturing 'fair ball', Bako trots home, and NO ONE says a word about it..no ump, no managers, nothing. I thought I was in the twilight zone and that *I* must be wrong! *puzzled*
