Ed is a good friend and old partner so I can't really rank on him too much. It's obvious that he "fell asleep" and took the $hitty end of the stick to boot.

It's not unusual for this to happen as most HS umpires also do Legion ball. It's usually umpires who don't bother to review the differences between OBR & FED and don't bother to learn OBR. They...

You'll make that call on bad bunt attempts and checked swing attempts that shouldn't have been, but at the professional level, it is nearly impossible to detect on a full swing.

So if we list the errors, which we have done in the past, where will it get you? The rules are the rules and when we officiate an OBR game, errors or not, we enforce the rules as written. It's kind...

The on-deck batter should be in the on-deck area of his team and not the other. Does he want to sit on their bench, too?

Right, it's the same signal that FED wants us to use in HS (most of us do not us this). :D I wanted to know what the dead ball signal was that this umpire supposedly used. :eek:

I can't see it happening any other way.


What the hell is a dead ball signal?


If the umpire called the ball dead, how can the pitch take place?
How can he put the batter anywhere?

Yes, the call was correct. In MLB, fan interference equates to elevating the umpires to gods - whatever they want is what will result. :D
