I was U2 in a SL Sectional game. U1 was a guy that also does college ball and does some local indepent (pro) league games.

I get a play at 2nd, on of the in the vicinity calls. This kid is off the bag. Farther then I would have normally given him I would have thought.

I don't know what came over me though, I rang up the out and gave a crisp but kind of a non-chalant out. Like one you would give on a routine out but I did verbalize it.

I had already let U1 know that I was open for his critique. A couple of innings later we met. He asked me what I saw on the call at second. I told him how I had it, he said, good, I just wanted to see if you saw it right. That was the right call, notice that you didn't hear a f** thing from anyone in the park. If you called him safe off the bag you would have heard alot of sh**. That is why we do it that way in higher level ball.
