Pretty good. I'd put that one in the top 25.
Does it above or below the one I heard a few years ago?:
Batter hits a line drive over shortstop and twists his knee getting out of the box. He writhes around a bit but then manages to get up and starts to limp to 1B. The (rather slow) relay from the outfield beats him to 1B by a step, so I call him out.
Him: "How can you call me out on that?"
Me: "The ball got there before you did. Same as a ground ball in the infield."
Him: "But not on a base hit! That was a base hit!"
