It is my opinion that unless it's so obvious that you can't help but call it, in that situation, with the pitcher issuing an intentional walk, you don't pick boogers.
The person who started the thread didn't see it and couldn't tell what it was after a multitude of replays. Apparently only one umpire saw it. If it was that obvious, I would think more than one guy would have called it.
Like I said, it's not wrong to call it, but in my opinion, and only my opinion, if it's not obvious, in a situation where no one expects that kind of call, with the game on the line, I don't think you make that call. IMHO, your mileage may vary...
