The scenario in the original post was brought to me by another coach. While I agree with the posts that said umpires can correct mistakes, the point I made to him was that the umpire mistake was essentially corrected. FU after seeing the ball on the ground ruled no catch. An initial mistake does not necessarily equate to the award. Batter/runner was retired 8-3 not 8 unassisted. The question I had for the aggrieved coach was "When arguing the call what would have been your response to the umpire replying and what should I tell the defensive coach when he wants a ruling on batter/runner never touching 1b?" Bob would rectify (no argument) any thoughts regarding allowing the play to stand?
