WOW,
Your question is timely.
A week from Saturday I am responsible to help the State of Oregon Federation Umpire Committee develop a process to eliminate the "Eddings Action" issue of third strikes.
It is interesting that one major occurance can make a system that has been deemed sufficient for decades now need to be reviewed.
I will be interested in what our experienced umpires, that work games when players can run on uncaught third strikes, add to help develop a process for this play.
Good question!
