I'm usually willing to give the MLB umpires the benefit of the doubt on most calls. This one I don't understand though. The 2nd and 3rd base umpires were both looking at the play and the home plate umpire has nothing to do but watch the play.
They just flat out missed that one.

It is only too likely that neither of us has any knowledge to boast of; but he thinks that he knows something which he does not know, whereas I am quite conscious of my ignorance. At any rate it seems that I am wiser than he is to this small extent, that I do not think that I know what I do not know. ~Socrates
