Correct me if I'm wrong, but there was nobody on base during that fair/foul controversy, right? If not, then why wasn't the home plate umpire getting out from behind the plate and getting his butt up the first base line to not only rule on the fair/foul, but also to help in case of a swipe tag. That is absolutey lazy umpiring, and if i saw any of my guys do that in the league i schedule umpires for, they'd be getting a royal butt chewing.
