I could not agree with you more. The catcher finishes the job (play)...we do not have this long discussion. In the post game news conference, you can hear (or suggest to yourself) that Doug Eddings may switch back to being a pointer type of umpire because of last night.

I point and have been for the past two seasons because of this exact play like last night that happened to my partner. After watching the whole thing transpire with my partner a few years back and then again with the play last night, is why I will probably always point from now on.
Ditto. After having a similiar play in a game several years ago, now I always point to the batter on a non-caught pitch, works great.


Thanks
David
I can guarantee one thing...in PA where I am if I would point, I wouldn't even smell a post-season game.
