With our opponent having a runner on first base, my son was straddling first base with his left foot in fair territory and his right foot in foul territory. Guess what the base umpire told him? If he wanted to straddle first base, he had to have both feet completely n fair territory
That's true
and his right foot had to be in contact with the base.
That's not.
I guess that is the type of rules knowledge from an umpire who wears a powder blue hat on the bases.
I've seen many umpires in navy blue and black hats that didn't know squat. I doubt if the color of a hat signifies the score the wearer got on his last rules test.
