Last Sunday, the third baseman for one team objected to my safe call by saying, "C'mon ump, he was out. I tug him before he slud in!" You will be happy to know, Tim, that I did not correct him.
Jerry, please connect me with your friend. I have gathered a lot of material over the years, and he might be able to use some of it.
Incidentally, Fay Vincent was a strong proponent of the correct use of English, and so was his Deputy Commissioner, Steve Greenberg.
But OK, no more corrections. Even the ASA rule book mixes up "lay" and "lie."
