Never, I don't know Jerry Layne if he was sitting in my living room.

Why would the MLB umpires rule any different than how we're saying that we would on this play (ie, "150% sure that he missed it") without talking to them, it would be safe to say that they'd agree w/ that philosophy unless somebody else can prove that philosophy to be wrong.

I will never call anybody out on a missed base appeal unless I'm 100% sure it was a missed base.
