Sorry.

I will not enter into an argument on this play.

I will take the direct statements made to me by Gerry Davis and Doug Harvey over the lack of what you consider proof. Simple. I will take a hundred years of practice over the vagueness of the rule book.

What I will not do is respond to anymore Quixotic cries of "paper, paper...where's the paper???" The baseball world is overflowing with verbal agreement from those far superior than you or I. Are they afraid to write it down? I doubt it. I believe they have more pressing issues to take their time. AS it is often said, the rule book is not written for amateur needs or inquiring minds.

Now then, do you or do you not call out batters hit by batted balls while in the fair portion of the batter's box?
