4. 2009 umpire manual section does not have the mechanic for a play at home plate where runner misses plate and no tag and what to do. That is an omission and will be back in 2010. It is on page 186 in 2008 rule book.

Sounds like an OOO sexist pig.

12. Communication is lacking from NUS staff's perspective. There is not enough of it.
