Kudos to all of us
It's 10:07, and the topic we have all dreaded reading since watching SportsCenter last night, knowing what it we devolve to, and knowing who would say what ... has not been started! Unless I just started it. Errgghh.

Kudos to all, and no need to start it here!

Video is inconclusive. The umpires win this one.

I too, can't believe a thread hasn't started yet. This shall be a thread about nothing.

Curved around the outside corners and was rising to the left but, I could clearly see from my vantage point what the call really was?

He obviously stepped more to home than first.

True, and I can scientifically prove that the ball does, in fact, rise at it approaches home plate.

Technically though, you can't apply that same theory to a ball traveling away from the plate because the kinetic energy losses can not be overcome by gravitational misgiving not excecuted at the time of the pitch.

KE=1/2mv, unless used in a conscientiously applied program of oral hygiene or dental health.

Foul Ball, Do Over. And thats my final answer.
