My thought on this is... why NOT call it foul? Kill it and bring the batter back with a strike.

Assuming it's fair and you call it foul: Sure, it MIGHT be a huge reward to the defense if you call it foul, but the offense is hurt very little with a strike on the batter.

Assume it's foul and you signal fair: you just F'd the defense, and gave a huge reward to the offense.

I don't know. I hear what you're saying... you can't call a foul if you don't see it. But can you keep it fair if you don't see it, either?
My point is that you're effed either way you go.

What if it's ASA SP and the count was 1-2? Still call the foul?

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
