MC, that is very possible. The next inning the offensive coach told me that his runner thought he was out. But based on what I had available to me at the time of the call, I did not assume that. Maybe I should have. My attention was directed at R2 almost immediately after I saw BU give the safe signal.
Not to be critical, but if I had been BU, I would not have made the out call until I allowed the play at second to be completed and if I had made the out call, I would of louldly verbalized that the runner was safe. But the guy I was working with did not do that. Like I said, I felt bad about it, but my responsibilites took me elsewhere and could not stay with runner at second.
