Get it Right...MLB Judgement Call

[Jurassic Referee]

I did take issue with JR stating that once a judgement call has been made in basketball, it cannot be set aside like they are preaching in baseball.

Uh no, JR NEVER said that. JR never said anything that was even close to that. JR said that one basketball official can NEVER OVERRULE another basketball official. JR said that there's a rule that backs that statement up too. JR then cited the rule verbatim. Don't try to change history on JR, Windy.

Any official in basketball that makes a judgement call can change that call HIMSELF if he thinks that he mighta screwed it up. He can also seek or get input from his partner(s) prior to making his decision. The calling official then is the only official that can make that change of his own call. No one else. And yes, it does happen fairly often because basketball officials wanna get the call right too.

That's what JR said, and that's what JR is still saying.
