BU calls runner out, then discusses with PU, checking for better angle.

PU, who was half way to 3rd for the play, says the runner was safe.
BU changes call to safe.


Ignore whether BU should not have called out if not sure.

I am still trying how the BU did not have the best look at this play. Bang the Runner out and move on.

Straightlined somewhat behind runner, PU half way up to 3rd on the line.

There no excuse for the BU to be straight lined on a force play at 3B when the throw is going F6 to F5. If the BU was straight lined then he was out of position at the TOP.

TOP? How about TOT? It isn't like the umpire doesn't move as the play develops.
