One other thing:

I watched a part of the game last night (8/24) on ESPN. There was a real "whacker" at first base...and U1 gave a "whacker" out mechanic that I have never, ever seen before.

I can't even describe it well enough to give it justice. One arm was brought in toward his body, while at the same time one went flying out and over his head.

Again: where would he have gotten such a mechanic? Because, no umpire in the history MLB, PBUC or NCAA (in otherwords, guys you might want to imitate) has ever used such a mechanic...as far as I'm aware of.

Did anyone else see it? Or was I more asleep than I realized, when I "thought" I saw this mechanic?
