Beating myself up about this one...
Last game of the day today. 2 strikes - check swing pitch that goes to the backstop. I call ball and wait for the catcher to appeal. He never does. Everyone yells throw to first, the catcher scrambles, gets the ball, and throws to first. Partner signals out!
Dang it, we huddled, my partner said he knew he went and didn't know that I didn't call it. Offensive coach was not too bad about it, he made some valid points towards me in a soft tone of voice which I bit my lip on because I knew he was right.
I'm assuming I should have just appealed it myself immediately, correct?
Like I said, I'm not too pleased about my gross miss.
