I second this interpretation. I'm not going to kill the play unless I either have:
A) a rule to back me up or
B) a condition that would justify it or
C) a rule to back me up

When in doubt, always go with C.

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.
