no... I am not from a baseball background per se'.. i have done baseball years and years ago.
once again I am concerned when umpires take it upon themselves to mechanically negate the rules by hiding behind what is know as "game management". instead of just letting the game happen and make rulings for violations when they occur.
ok before y'all flip out at my flippant and obviously antagonistic statement regarding game management. I embrace game management and use it quite often in almost every game.
in my original posting issue.... I just happen to disagree that the umpires should manage this scenario.
why?
because then I would be right.
I will just join the masses and wish nfhs had a better ruleset.
