As this may have worked on this play, a few weeks ago (2 umpires for a DI game  ), runner at third who takes off after the force play at first (on infield hit). PU (my partner) set up in 3BL extended, makes call with both feet off the ground because the runner was sliding into him.  |
Now this is one I want to hear about tonight at the meeting - especially with a few Molson's downed.
