If the throw is squirrelly, then I have a pulled foot. I know the difference when I see it, and rule accordingly.
2) The old "neighborhood play" at 2nd base on the DP I rule as follows:
If the pivot man makes the most of the play, and doesn't just stand off to the side 2 feet away from the base, but actually makes a semblance of coming across the base, then I rule in his favor. If he's just standing off to the side and does not put effort into the play, I do not reward him with an out. I will cheerfully signal safe.

Of course. No one argued with this.
