The call was in error and the State corrected it.

As I posted above even state interpreters can misstate the rule and cause great problems.

For those of you who had lost track of the ruling:

The original umpire had ejected players for a celebration during a DEAD BALL and that is not of what the POE speaks.
The State did not correct it. They chickened out. Since the gross misinterpretation of the rule came on a dead ball, West Caldwell should have been declared the winner, 10-2.

The article said the HR made it 10-2, but the original post said the score was 10-2 when the HR was hit. If the post was correct the final score should have been 12-2 and game over on the 10 run rule.
