Other was a throw from cather (OU) to 2B where R1 (AZ) was caught sleeping getting back to 2B. Threw her out. U1 called OBS and awarded her 2B. IMO, granted I see crimson and creme, thought the runner had a clear lane back to the bag as 2B was straddling bag. Thought it shouldn't have been called
Watching the pick off at 2B, at first, I thought the 1B ump made a great call. Watching the replay,
and in slow motion, it appeared that the ball beat the runner back to the bag. The fielder clearly was blocking the bag without the ball, though, and while I did not see any hesitation or deviation, the camera angles were not the best.. The 1B ump had the best look. He must have seen some sort of deviation or contact prior fielder receiving the ball. Just curious what others saw on this play.
