I go off the center fielders reaction, he stops running and in one fluid motion bends over a little bit, turns around and fires the ball back in to second as fast as he can. Going off his reaction I say no catch, runner at second. I get back to third base and nothing is being said until the coach comes out and says "Corey that's a catch, he should be out."
"So, Coach tell me this: Why did your fielder fire the ball in to second base with such urgency if he caught the ball for the 3rd out? Don't fielders who just made a catch for the 3rd out just trot in with the baseball? Not a catch, Coach."

Every time I use logic in a "discussion" with a rat, it never turns out well. I have more productive debates with my two-year-old.
