I had a brain fart I beat myself up pretty good over... my 10th game of the w/e, a semi.

R1@3B, times out, games tied, home team up.. 1 Out "trouble" hit to F6 who fiddles it a bit then throws to one for the banger. She was safe, i called her safe.. but didnt sell it... to me, the call didnt matter, so I called the play kinda lazy, run scored.. game over... and I'm walking to 1B dug out to get my stuff and leave..

What the heck!! Half of every one going nuts.. I realize why.. there were actually 2 outs... not 1. This would have sent it to tie breaker.

Just stupid of me.. had I not goofed up on outs I would have sold the crap out of that call and not had to listen to that... knowing that I screwed up and didnt know the outs.

My bad.. ugh, terrible.

Umpires for the next game both said I got the call right .. but still, thats the difference between calling it correctly and not.. knowing you made an error in the call.
