But yeah, I'm not about to claim that I know that to be correct.
Yeah, I can see where announcing "illegal" may cause chaos since it is not appropriate.

You seem to be making the claim that their can't be live ball awards and therefore this can't be a live ball award. But a walk is a live ball award and it doesn't engender the problems you're concerned about so I'm not sure why this would be the case.
Which is exactly where we were when I agreed with Dakota and the follow-up by MD Longhorn.
