She had smoked 2 nice shots already. Count is 2-0. And for some reason i didn't stay focused on the Runner. I think I didn't stay focused cause it seemed not to be a steal sitch. Well she stole and and I missed her leaving early, and I mean early. i couldn't call her out cause i wasn't paying attention. But I believe in every bone in my unfocused body that girl left early. So the lesson I learned is to expect the unexpected.

Forntunately the hitter flew out and the inninng ended.

Cannot help it, I've gotta ask. If you weren't paying attention enough to call the runner out for leaving early, how do you know she left early?
