But then that's what I knew Manny was doing even though he hadn't specified that there were fewer than two outs.
So, no offense, but "duh!" It's always only "Strike three" but if she takes off and she's not entitled, it's "Batter's out! Batter's out!"
But that's for baseball. So you all are saying, one doesn't do it for softball?
