I think we have a few moronic commentators like Joe Morgan and Tim McCarver to thank for some of the grief we take when we ring up a batter on an appeal from inside. Too often I'll hear a coach complain that there was no way I could see if the barrel of the bat broke the front plane of the plate. I'm sure some of this comes directly from listening to ignorant commentators who have no idea how we judge an attempt.
Tim.
