This is something all leagues do a terrible job with that is starting to be addressed. All sports should have regional rules seminars that broadcasters are required to attend. In the Santana no-hitter, the Cardinal announcer was mentioning whether the Beltran line drive went over the bag or not, which is immaterial. In addition, all sports, on their websites should have places where misunderstood rules and their applications are discussed with videos where people can understand not only the rules, but their accepted applications. The NBA does that with their video rule book.
