Am I reading the same article as everyone else?

To directly quote the article "When a bunch of the Warriors greeted Scott Hodge at home plate after his two-run home run in the fifth put them ahead 10-2, all but three members of the team were disqualified under a national high school rule that says:..."

The HR Hodge hit put them ahead 10-2, then all but three players were disqualified.

The umpire screwed the pooch big time. He applied the rule incorrectly. Why is it so hard to fathom that the his error should be corrected and the game played from that point, with West Caldwell up 10-2?

Tim, thanks for responding. I respect you opinion, I just wholeheartedly disagree with it.
