In tonight's Championship game, I couldn't help but notice the RF official (who may have only had this one call in the entire game) start to bring his hands up as if kill the ball for a foul call----and then suddenly point fair.......
They never showed good replays, but it was obvious to tell RFU had some apprehension in his call.

There was also an appeal play at 3B after a caught fly in short center.
BU3 and PU discuss the call before making the decision..............
What's there to discuss???????? Make the call!!!
Six umps on a dinky diamond and they can't make a simple appeal call without discussing it?
What was BU3 watching---the LL moms in the 4th row?


Just my opinion,
