In all fairness to you, Its not worth much! It doesnt really matter, as its easy for them to say/be gracious since they got the call. Plus the bench coach wasnt even close-in the dugout, and the 3rd base coach was across the diamond, so the BU had the best view.
Any decent official wont make a call safe/out based on a "weird" split stretch-his foot is either on or off. And the comment from another poster about a "splitters" foot always being on cause thats how they stretch--- well, I'll take that with a grain---again its either on or off......
