Thanks for the welcome, guys!

I only recently found this site. Been lurking for awhile, though. Good to see so many familiar faces from the other board.

Looking forward to expanding my softball knowledge!

(And my baseball knowledge, too. Just better make sure I'm fully "geared-up" before wading in on the baseball board- it gets a little intense over there.)

OK , another question . With all the time it took to get together and talk it over do you think any of the umps were looking at the intstant replay on the giant screen TV ? I would find it difficult to NOT take a peek. Brian

I may be wrong..but I dont think the teams are allowed to do that to completion... they can show UP TO the contested moment...but not the actual moment..It avoids controversy..

Just found this board as well. Lots of familar screen names. And a whole lot more civility.

I believe you are correct.

so, are you saying there was obstruction on this play?
