Peter's Intentional Walk/Strike

[GarthB]

Steve,

I believe they are the association of Major League Umpires.

I have no idea who makes or writes their rulings or what authority they carry. I could ask if you'd like. Or you could, I suppose.

I contacted them regarding a "practice" not a rule.

I chose them because Peter's advice was to call the play as it would be called in the major leagues. I guessed that major league umpires would be the ones to contact for that purpose.

If you choose to disregard their comments, that's okay with me. It's not heart surgery here. Nobody's going to die if we disagree. Besides, I'm not the one that said we should always call our games like the pros.

Thanks for your questions.

GB
