Unless this is an EGREGIOUS LBR violation on the B/R, what in the world is the plate umpire worrying so much about the B/R here? I'm assuming with multiple runners on there is at least another priority. Like I said, and let me be clear here...if it's a violation, then by all means call it, and call it immediately. But if the B/R wasn't going anywhere and it was the way it was described, I have a really hard time swallowing what happened here with this crew.
Talk about putting yourself in the game.
