A few years ago, I called out a runner who was tagged when he ended up about six feet toward second base after beating a throw and pulling up lame, then turning right and limping back toward the bag.
In the post-game, I concluded it was a "bull $hit call," (a determination the manager made in about five seconds) but it was made at the time without the benefit of any reflection. I haven't made the jump to thinking it made me a "bull $hit umpire!"
