So, Marvin, you are in the C with runners at the corners, bottom of 7th, 2 outs, score is 4-3.
Hard ground ball toward the middle fielded by F6. R5 cedes the force at 2B, but less than two steps from the base guns the ball by F3 to the fence. R5 now thinking she is a freakin' roadrunner, is put out at 3B. BTW, because of this play, you ended up going 15 innings before the home team pulls out the win.
Now, how would you refer to the decision made by F6 in the 7th inning?
