Yeah, I have forgotten.

Obviously it was a much bigger deal to you.

BTW, thanks for sharing private e-mails with the internet community, although I have no idea what you are talking about.

Jim:

I am still waiting for the slanderous statements I made toward you.

I really don't appreciate the insinuation. I am a prick on the field, but I don't get involved in this horse$hit.

Where would you want to be?

There is no need to go up 1st base line, only to come back to 1BLE or 3BLE for a play at the plate if it develops.

Moving up 1st base line to get 20 feet closer to...

There is no truth to any rumour that we are taught to do this.

Jim's approach is very solid and has a ton of common sense - something that is lacking today with many officals.

Here is a absolute gaff I made last week. This has been mulled over by a few umpire lists with varying views. I thought it would make for a good discussion here.

Angry Brent - wake up

As you describe the play, the runner would only be out of the lane while his left foot is on the ground. So, if the ball hits the runner when his left foot is not in contact, you do not have a...

The ball is dead and the batter is automatically out. He has no chance to advance to FIRST.

This is precisely WHY we kill it. On the play, batter swings, misses and the ball deflects off his knee, to the backstop. R3 scores.

Now, how do we justify R3 scoring on a play that the catcher...

To " swing" the bat is an active motion. Merely holding the bat is a passive one.

If we thought this way having the ball pass the pat anywhere close to the plate would be a swing.

I would treat this as "unintentional interference" under 3.15 (OBR). While the player came out of the dugout, he is an authorized person on the field. I see it no differently than if the bat...
