Missing home after a HR.

[WhatWuzThatBlue]

We've done this before and if I didn't know any better I'd think you were put up to this one.

If you are indeed from Illinois, then you only need recall a Super Sectional game a few years ago. The batter hit a ball that cleared the fence in fair territory and his team came out to celebrate the home run. The plate umpire noticed that the batter had clearly missed the dish and so did the coaches and catcher of the defensive team. The batter was declared out and his run did not count as he had abandoned his attempt to advance to home in the correct manner.

The same play happened in a Colorado state championship game and was discussed here as well.

Some members feel that this is an expected call and we should ignore something that is of little consequence. Let's see if that box gets opened again.
