Cripes, another myth . . .
"If you can stand on the third base side of a field and tell a coach that his batter definitely swung on a legitimately close check swing then if the coach knows anythign about baseball will be riding you... Theres an impossible angle."
As I have intoned many, many times:
People that defend this logic either don't understand the checked/unchecked swing rule or do not have the guts to make a tough call.
A well trained umpire can easily make this call from either "B" or "C".
