LakeErieUmp I usually poll the fans as well as the coaches and make calls accordingly. Except of course a tie at first base which, of course, goes to the batter.
Jurassic Referee gsf23 wroteHe took off the go after the pitcher. He had just been hit by a pitch so he kicked the catcher so he wouldn't get grabbed from behind as he ran out the the mound.Yup, here's Izzy in action; it's #4.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Nc3XzVZSbI Howcome when the bullpens empty, they'll both run 300 feet side-by-side but they never start fighting until they hit the infield?:confused: Can somebody 'splain that to me?
DG There is a rule that limits the number of defensive players that can be involved in a rundown. There can only be 9 at TOP so 9 is the limit.
ncump7 JR.. The reason the bullpens do not fight until they get to the infield is because THAT IS THE RULE!!!!
Hock9 They always get WAY more tough once the linesman grab them and effectively prevent them from getting killed. "Hey ref, that was a checking shift". Really? "Yeah, coach was checking to see if I had my skates laced up"

Just once I'd love to see them leave the outfield bullpen, start running, and way out in the outfield start fighting. Imagine one guy looking to his right while running, then undercutting an opposing player, then another player decks someone else. How fun that would be, huh? 😀
