The directive issued originally to think in terms of "if not legal, it must be illegal".
Late a memo went out empasising that illegal pitches are illegal and should always be called, but in determining illegal pitches think in terms of, "if not
illegal, the pitch is legal"
A subtle way of looking at it, but I think I understood the emphasis.
I didn't see the Friday or Saturday Big E games being referred to, but from what I am hearing here and heard on the phone this morning, they were no brainers..
