Who knows what memos fly around MLB about this stuff. From the materials we have, it sounds like Eddings messed up (still haven't seen the play). I can't comment on his mechanics during the call, since I haven't seen it.
My point is we don't have all the rule material used in MLB, so we can't really judge what the correct call (or no call) would have been.
In FED, NCAA and OBR at our local diamond, this is an out. But who knows at the MLB level, which can diverge from the OBR path with its private memos.
