Same for the other plays. Actually the coach asked for an explaination and ended up with the call being right. Talk about helping the umpire out.

Imagine what would have happened to Marsh if the play would have been uncontested and all of TV world knew it was a HR and it didn't get called. His nickname would be Denkinger.

BAck to the 80's we go.

Thanks

I did not see the play on TV. I did hear it on the radio (live). I do not know what came first, the coach coming out or not. But I do know if I had information to give my partner, the actions of the coach would be irrelevant.

Peace
