I gives up.

Like Garth said (kinda) ya would have to be there.

I say it’s in how ya read it. (That’s probably why I always screw up on a lot of questions on Fed tests)

My hang up is one word “flinch”. Some folks “flinch” when you act like your gonna throw a ball at them. Some “flinch” when an unexpected sound comes from an unseen area. Hell I “flinch” when “Yes Dear” (my wife) walks up to me real fast.

Flinch doesn’t mean going to. According to “Webster” flinch means to withdraw or shrink from.

So if he flinched toward second something in the foul area caused him to withdraw FROM that direction and “flinch TOWARD second”.

We have all seen players “duck and cover” or flinch when they thought they where going to get hit with the ball coming from unknown direction.

Not saying he did, not saying he didn’t. Just saying I read it for what the word means.

Now then if feint would have used, nail the sucker. BUT then there wouldn’t have been much of a challenge to the question.


I guess you’d just have to have been there.


BUT, Jim, if you believe you used “flinch” correctly, I believe you done bad.
