Am I the only one who thinks this is an absolutely incorrect call?
Suppose you have R1 on 2B, and B2 hits the ball to the shortstop. You're saying that R1 can't take a few steps, then retreat to 2B if the shortstop goes after him with the ball?

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!
I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
