It is really frustrating when you have to make a call, and then one team will say you let the spectators or other team make the call. None of us can say we are not subconsciously influenced by what happens around us, but we certainly should call what we see and take the consequences. Hopefully, we would make the call regardless, as long as we really saw it. Of course, if the spec said 2 steps, it was probably 2 inches. It's too late for whatever was missed on the previous pitch, so go forward with a clean slate.
