JR...What official is daydreaming if this violation for hitting the ball on the way up is not called? The Referee, tosser? The Umpire? Both?
I had this happen a while back...I was the Umpire, non-tosser, and saw the player hit the ball on the way up. The Coach howled about it, and he was right. The action simply caught us off guard. We didn't make a call.
I apologized to the Referee at half-time for not coming up with the call...he said he could have just as easily called it also, but it caught him sleeping to.
