"We’re down 5-0…last at bat….we rally for three runs….we’ve got two out, runner on first….one of our girls hits a long single to left center….our runner rounds second heads to third….there is a throw and a close play at third….neither umpire makes a call (the field umpire was behind 2nd base…they come out and confer four about 3 minutes….still no call…finally they call her out……we felt if they could not arrive at a decision that given they were both out of position, they should have called her safe….anyway the game ended on that note…instead of having the tying run at second, the game was over. Thoughts?" |
Are you (or the coach) saying they called an out w/o seeing it and w/o being sure?
