My fault

I wrote the Wendelstedt School an email regarding this play. They have informed me that I am wrong. Also, they said that the answer to this question would be posted on their site.

There's no problem here. As he starts back to his base, the umpire should say, "Hey, you can't go back." This was done in that weird play in Toronto a couple years ago. Hudson awarded the guy 3rd,...

That's what I thought also. I spoke with Hunter Wendelstedt though, and he said that both schools had the exact same number of students attend last year. He also said that either way, the best...

I noticed that the Wendelstedt Umpire school website has been posting rules question, with their answers. Seems neat to be able to get a professional perspective on it.

I chose. . .

I will be going to Harry's this year. I weighed all of the options of both schools and came to the conclusion that Harry's was better. Not only for the money, but the important part, the education....

Hold up. . .

First, the judgement of the balk may not be protestable, but the explanation of such is because that is the application of the rule. 8.05 (d) cannot be used. He was not in contact with the plate. The...

Well. . .

I don't really think that it is as clear as clear can be. Certainly, if the runner were breaking home, and the pitcher made the same motion, you wouldn't balk him. He would be a fielder throwing...

I was just looking for comments on why that was a balk? He did legally step off. Can't he throw anywhere? Perhaps they got him for making a motion natuarlly associated with his pitch.

Thanks for your input, all of you. I've decided to attend Harry's. For a couple reasons:
First, I new someone that went there, and could actually give me first hand, in person knowledge about the...

I am attending umpire school this year, and was thinking the other day about the process of how I chose which one to go to. I was wondering which one have you chosen, either this year, or in the...

Not an appeal

I think what you saw was not an appeal or check swing, not the umpire pointing the runner to the direction that he should run, but I believe that he was indicating a swinging strike. I've noticed...

Are you going down there this year? I think that I am, but not really sure. Wondering if my age will be a factor. I just turned 19.

What?!

That's not what happen though. This is completely different than hearing someone call your partner something. Even if the pitcher said, "I'm going to throw at this guy's head.", Major League umpires...

I understand that may have been reported by the WUA, but the "common sense" ruling was thrown out at this past year's Rules Committee meeting. This was because there are several rules which awards of...

Wendelstedt also agrees

"As Jim Evans states in Baseball Rules Annotated, "Today's rule delineates between illegal pitches and illegal acts by the pitcher. Penalties for these various infractions can be found in 2.00...
