Okay, the scoreboard said 3-2 and the PU shows a count of 2-2 to the dugouts. Nobody complains, no one challenges so the base umpires keep their mouths shut.
That is what is supposed to happen! What do you people want the base umpires to do, come running in, waving their arms screaming "that's the wrong count!" like it was some sand lot or LL game? I can't begin to count how many times the count was wrong and I said nothing as the BU unless my partner came to me! If the dugouts or the players don't say anything, play on! If they do, then bail out your partner.... QUIETLY!
