I generally look at lines as a courtesy of the facility. Sometimes, they're there. Sometimes, they're not. Sometimes, they're there, but they're wrong (since when do the coaches' boxes go towards the outfield?). Use your best judgment when the lines are wrong or not present.

In ASA, I'd probably have nothing on this play. The throw is coming from foul territory.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
