Orioles/Athletics Game Aug 16

[LDUB]

Did anyone see this game yesterday? Palmeiro was batting with two strikes called against him, and he checked his swing on a pitch that hit him. Palmeiro starts to run to first, and the Athletics asked Angel Hernandez(PU) to ask Larry Young(3B) if Palmeiro swung. Larry rings him up for strike three. Apparentally there was some sort of controversy about this play. But to me, it seems as if this play was handeled well.
