I hope I did not offend. I honestly didn't expect any disagreement on this site, even though we got some on the other site. This one's been tossed around before. Once Manny joined in, I lost all hope of this remaining as a reasonable discussion. He tends to stretch minutia out to reach the moon, and use ad absurdum tactics to make his points (like the comparison to overrunning 1st base here).

Not sure if you're aware, btw... IrishMike and AtlUmpSteve are the folks who are in the room when ASA discusses rule changes or wordings. If they say it, it's the way ASA wants it. I've disagreed with them in the past ... but I was always wrong.
