What about it?

Well, this thread has been completly hijacked!
Tom, I have heard that the NCAA and the JC level expects the "neighborhood" call to be made, especially at second base on a double play attempt. I don't work either level, just heard this from talking to some local guys that do. Maybe the Kellerumps or Del-Blue can comment.
