The coach challenging my positioning was pretty ignorant on his part, Steve. There's only one place to go on a call like this and I was all over it like a fat kid on cake. Then his questioning his fielder if he'd bobbled the ball told me he had no idea what had transpired, and most likely wasn't watching the play at all.
