90 might have worked better here. Damed if you do and dammed if you don't.

That's a lot more than 2SF, so it certainly can't be used as an argument against it.

Sure, but do you think 2SF would have helped him here?

I think he would still have been screened from the bobble.

Agree. F3's chest is completely facing the plate, plus the throw was on his left side. PU is the only one who has a good look at this.

Congrats to the crew for getting this right.
