Strike 2, yer out!
I'm BU. R1 on 2B. 1 out. First pitch to next batter, R1 leaves early. I call (loudly), "no pitch, dead ball, runner out, left early." Batter fouls off the "no pitch." Next pitch, swing and miss. Next pitch called strike, partner rings her up with the third stike call. Everybody (offense and defense) assumes strike 3, defense leaves, offense starts to take the field. Me, I'm thinking - "that was strike 2...", stood in place for a few seconds trying to get my partner's attention. He never looked. I let it go and headed to get a between innings drink of water.
Comments?
