Pulled foot mechanic and timing

[refman]

Warren.....you're missing the point on this one. Your long, detailed explanation/rule references regarding "judgement" are not being disputed. On a pulled foot situation, the umpire making the call from the "C" position makes his out/safe call using his "judgement" at the time. From that point, if there was a pulled foot, witnessed by the plate umpire, and questioned by the 1st base coach (or other qualified offensive representative), and if the appropiate steps are taken by the offense to request the base umpire to please check with the plate umpire....then proper mechanics and common sense dictate to do do. If the foot was pulled, and the PU tells the BU in their private little discussion, then the BU changes his call to "get it right". Plain and simple.....no "judgement" .....that was used to make the out/safe call. And you make the out/safe call before asking the plate ump for any kind of help.
