Knowing I have screwed the pooch, I take the only "out" I have left which is the "oh he's so safe I can make this casual palms down sign whilst closing in a yard or so just in case I am out of camera range."
Good thing Barrett didn't jump up like he knew what was going on. Timmy fooled 'em all.  |
Look at the play again. The PU is TBLX and not right field. He had a great look at the play. Actually he had a better look than the camera angles. Timing was great (could have sold it better) if Barret holds the ball he's out. If not he's safe.
Actually the "safe play" is to call him out. Easy to argue he never got the plate.
