Do you think he did it on purpose? If so, he is a cheat. I highly doubt he booted the call on purpose. We are human. We've all missed calls, get over it.

Welke obviously didn't adjust for the off throw; otherwise, he would have clearly seen the "way pulled" foot. As I have been told, "Get back to fundamentals..."

Keep an eye on the news, he may even have a comment about it.

But he might appoint a Bad Call czar to oversee the umpires.

I wonder if Donnie asked him to get help from the plate umpire, who would have clearly seen the pulled foot.

I wonder if Welke would have considered getting help, if asked to.

If I'm asked, I always check with the plate umpire. My goal is to get the play right.
