Kind of like the old justice system you are innocent until proven guilty, the rules say you are safe until proven out(ball has to beat runner) we call it as you are out until proven safe (runner has to beat the ball).

the call change that bugged me was a few tourneys ago.. I was PU, ball hit.. after the bad play by def, def coach went to my BU to see if he saw the ball hit the b/r in the box.. BU then changed it to seeing that way.

Lame to change yourself on what should have been an immediate dead ball IF you saw that, and honestly and of course the offense coach had a heart attack. I didnt want to get into a pissing contest with my "partner'' during the game so I just let the drama play out and we continued on bringing the batter back after the extraordinary "delayed" dead ball call.

IMO, if you see dead ball, call it, or eat it, but whatever you do, dont get talked into it.
