Appeal play

Then again, how hard is it to make a ruling after being told what happened.

Not going with HM, but unjustified ball watching.
Plus:
1- scream if you see me folding my arms while a coach talks
2 - scream if my hands are on my hips while explaining
3 - remind me to remove dark glasses
4 - same as 1, more so with angry coach
5 - why can't MLB umps think & talk w/o the PU?
