Soooo - Top of the first. R1 & R2. No outs. I am in C. Batter pops up a bunt halfway down the third base line. Both F1 and F2 reach the ball about the same time and I see a bobble for a moment and then just bodies. I knew plate umpire was screened and did not have a good look. So we are just waiting to see something. Plate ump thinks it is a catch and starts to ring up the out. At the same time I see the ball on the ground and point "the ball is on the ground". Plate ump changes the call and we have a 2-5-4 dp. Coach naturally goes ballistic about the delayed call. Sometimes getting the call right may not be the best thing. If I had to do it over again I think I would not have seen the ball on the ground. Don't think there would have been any complaints by either coach. I'm sure this could have been handled better. Let the comments begin!
