I noticed something in last nights...
 
mauling of the Tribe by the BoSox.

Dana DeMuth's plate stance.

Back in the 90s, he used to work out of the scissors, but last night, he worked out of (from what I understand) the GD system. Agree or no??

Not a GD. But Dana's stance is almost a vertical bend rather than getting wide in the box. It's odd, but he makes it work.

I noticed early in the game a ball hit down the 1st base line (appeared to be foul) called fair by the 1st BU with a point and what appeared to be a verbal call of fair. Anyone else see this?

He also used to point to the left on strikes for left handed batters and to the right for right handed batters. Now he uses a hammer. People change.

I noticed this and so did a few of my friends who were watching with me.

I also had the 1 BU saying "fair ball" (reading his lips) as he pointed. He also had a call of out on the step on first (I did not see a signal nor any verbal of that), but he clearly appeared to mouth "fair ball."
