Case in point was Domonic Brown "missing" second last night in the Phillies/Marlins game. A terrible call by Kerwin Danley -- replays show that Brown actually touched second base, but not on the front corner of the base, like a runner normally would. Danley upheld an appeal and replays showed he looked at the "touch" from behind and guessed at a missed base. We shouldn't be guessing if someone missed -- we need to know (100%) someone missed or they touched.
