"...During the celebration, Eden Prairie coach Mike Halloran motioned to first base, seeming to indicate a desire for the called strike to be appealed to the first-base umpire.
The umpires conferred and after a lengthy discussion, the call was reversed...
Two thoughts:
(1) Called strikes cannot be appealed. Wasn't that a called Strike?
(2) Wasn't that a "Safe" signal for the uncaught 3rd strike? It it were, then the signal "Out" should have been made immediately upon F2 tagging the BR. Because it wasn't, a sh$$tstorm developed.
