I find it interesting that many have chosen to focus on the umpire's mistake (Premature Call). I am not saying I disagree with any of the prior posts. I entitled the post multiple mistakes because I also felt that had Batter/Runner continued running and touched 1b, there would have been no or little controversy. Offensive coach may complain but his players as Batter/Runners should also be coached to run to 1b. As they often say in Baseball, "You never Know."
