You don't need to be that close to view a force out (if the play was a force out).
Was it?
Or was it a steal attempt?
I agree with you there. I'd be a couple of small steps back.

It was most likely a force out play, as there appears to have been no tag.

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.
