Does run count

Dase ump was in perfect position looking right thru 2nd at catch and runner. I was on plate and came up the line on fouls side and had good angle of 3rd baserunner and base ump . I honestly thought they were coming to 3rd for appeal and was kind of amused that they went 2nd instead.

Runner definitly crossed the plate because they took forever to tell the pitcher how to appeal, that was a bit hilarious but he got it done. Sometimes coaches forget the little things, eh.

I am going to side with Steven Tyler on this one. (my shocked face)

You stated that you had a good angle of R3 and the base umpire. Q: Why would you be watching the base umpire? Wouldn't you line yourself up to see R3 and the touch of the ball F8? Could you please clear this up for us. Thanks.
