Here's my entry:
Working a SP game. Batter hits a long drive to the fence. He's also a speedster. As he runs to third base, he cuts his turn short, thus missing the bag on his way home. Defense appeals (catcher was on the line, and saw him miss third base). I call runner out. Coach comes running out of the dugout, along with the runner, and run towards me. (Thought I was working a MLB game when I saw this). Coach yells at me about was I sure he missed the base. Tell him, "yes sir, I am." His response to me: "But blue, what reason would he have for missing the bag when he's the fastest runner out here??"
Hmmmmm.......Interesting question?
