No rules were made up by anyone in this sitch, so I don't think 12.06 applies. This sitch is really straightforward, if the pitch was a ball it's a ball, simple as that.
Nice try though.

I see CJN had that humor bypass surgery.

I think 12.06 should be added to our list of abbreviations for sure. So much better to just say 12.06 then to get all upset over it and start a huge debate. Coach JM: good work. Now, I'll never say that again to a coach
