How would an umpire judge that? You have a few guidelines to go off of: straight line from 1st to 3rd in some cases, and 1st to 2nd/2nd to 3rd in other cases. Are you really suggesting that an umpire is supposed to judge the actual distance that a ball traveled as being greater than or less than 90 feet, instead of "yes, it passed (or didnt pass) a direct line from two obvious points on the field"?
