Question MLB may be different

Pete,

I see what you are saying and in our leagues I would expect the PU to make a call.

Or at least to immediately go to the BU and say I saw this "..." and let the BU make the final decision.

Now say its the same play and a run scores then you have a major fiasco because we all know managers get 200% more heated when the play involves a run scored or not.

It sounds like MLB may have a different set of guidelines for BU and PU. Maybe they let BU take it all the way to the bag for such calls and PU only decides when the ball hits BR in the last 45 feet.

Since we don't do MLB we probably will never know the answer.

Thanks
David
