It is precisely at these times that coaches and players may try to break the rules to try to get an advantage. This is great call in a big game."

Sound like something Yeast may have said while defending the umpire's call in the CSF/ASU game the other night? Well, think again, folks. That's a Dave Yeast quote, all right, but it is from the last NCAA video-bulletin this year, in which a no-stop balk was called and Yeast made these editorial comments about it.

Apparently the CSF/ASU umpire saw that bulletin, and took it to heart. Bully for him.

Sounds to me like Mr. Yeast probably to this umpire out for a beer afterward to give him a public ataboy for calling it the way it was supposed to be called. To bad for the losing team, I bet their pitchers come to a descernable stop from now on.
