Interesting Question
This was recently brought to my attention, I am interested in some opinions:
R2, outs and count does not matter.
R2 tries to steal 3B. R2 overslides 3B. BU calls R2 safe. Manager has discussion with BU, who then comes to check with PU in a conference. PU says he did not get a good look at the call. You as PU say:
A. PU says "I go with your call."
B. PU says either: "IMO he's out", or "IMO he's safe". BU then accepts PU's judgment and makes that his call.
C. PU tells BU to "Make a call and stick with it, if you are wanting to change you call do it."
Questions:
1. How do you deal with BU in this case?
2. How do you deal with either manager when they come to you as the PU for an explanation?
3. What influences you to make this call on the level of ball you most commonly work?
Thank you for your consideration and opinions.
