Say What?
Working a game today (BU), basehit to the RC gap of a 3-man outfield and I come inside, watch BR hit 1B and take him into 2B. I have a great look across the front edge of 2nd watching the throw coming into 2B. Nice throw, but runner gets in ahead of the throw.
After the play, pitcher taps me on the back and asks me to move out of his line of sight so he can properly back up the play. I tell him I'm in the proper position to see the play. He goes, "yeah, but I need to see that ball coming in". So, I ask, "So, you want me to move out of position and possibly miss the call so you can watch the ball come in from the outfield?" Pitcher responds, "yeah, thanks, man!"
Huh?
