Last season I counted 33 missed bases w/out an 6 bases with appeal. The year before it was a whopping 43 to 2!

That's an amazing stat. 33 more outs...and how many more minutes of game time did those outs cost you. Very interesting post. Thanks.

I hear ya. But not my concern. My job is to grant and decide on the appeal if the defense requests it...not to draw attention to the mistake.

I think the appeal rules are pretty good for FED.

So do I. Can you imagine the chaos if Fed now switched to the OBR appeals process?

Never said we were drawing attention to anything...just commenting on what I thought was an interesting stat...one that I haven't tracked.
