his face isn't even a factor. he drew all attention to himself by freezing in that WTF pose while everyone else went about their business.
even the batter said some words as she approached, and he never turned to look, but he appeared to give a shrug. he was "gawking" at the play and lingering far too long after not to draw attention. its all in body language and some lack of. he telegraphed that he expected something coming such as a questioning of the call.
if he wanted to be in a better spot and available to help, how about he take his pad out and move into foul area near the running lane and wait while pretending to be jotting instead of starring down that image of a play long finished, or at least sweep the plate as he normally would have done.

If I had to guess, I would say he is waiting for what never came, the partner looking for him if someone questioned the call.
He may have been dumbfounded, but unless you were the BU, you don't know  |
