Force Play?

What is your diffinition of upper level?

And who cares about upper level? I sure don't.
You nick pickers are something else.
I bet y'all say one thing and then when you get on the field you do something else.
I don't appreciate personally being attacked on my views. EX: telling me someone is going to laugh me out of a room. If I am wrong so be it. Because I disagree with you doesn't mean you have to attack me.

Oh by the way, "In my judgement he abandoned the base" What are you going to do? Protest?
And if I want to call it a "Making a Travesty of the Game", Who is to say it isn't? It an umpire's judgement.
This is the most subjective objective team sport ever.

I have no quorums as to how I call a game. I am confident in my application of the rules.
If I tell both coaches that their pitcher has to step off the rubber before throwing to a base to make an appeal. That pitcher better step off the rubber. Whether you agree or not. Both teams know it so I don't see the problem.

What I have read in this forum so far for the most part pretty good information.
But what I have also seen is that there are a small few whom have taken it upon themselves to have a closed mine on other umpires interpentations of the Rules. And ridicule any whom oppose.
Heck, most everyone that reads the Bible has a different interpretation. So why not a simple Base Ball Rule Book?
