Tennessee @ Alabama
3rd inning. U1 rings up an appeal for a 3rd out on a throwback to 1B after a line drive is caught by F4.
After coach goes just slightly crazy, checks with PU and U1 reverses the call and coach (Ms. Wheatly) insists the PU was in no position to "overturn" the call.
BTW, it wasn't close, the runner was back in plenty of time. U1 never got set and walked into the call. Can only assume he just couldn't tell the runner had made it back.
