Strike 2, yer out!
 

I'm BU. R1 on 2B. 1 out. First pitch to next batter, R1 leaves early. I call (loudly), "no pitch, dead ball, runner out, left early." Batter fouls off the "no pitch." Next pitch, swing and miss. Next pitch called strike, partner rings her up with the third stike call. Everybody (offense and defense) assumes strike 3, defense leaves, offense starts to take the field. Me, I'm thinking - "that was strike 2...", stood in place for a few seconds trying to get my partner's attention. He never looked. I let it go and headed to get a between innings drink of water.

Comments?

I'll probably get slammed for this . . . but in a blowout game that's what I would have done. A tight game I'd have probably called time and talked to my partner and let him make his own decision.

I'm jogging down to either correct my partner, or finding out where I missed a strike. I'm not just letting something like that go...

The batter was denied a full at bat by a correctible mistake by the umpires.
You should have done what it takes to correct it, regardless of the score, since individual accomplishments are also affected.

Pobrecito...

Speaking ASA

Defense left the infield? Though this isn't "fair" because the offense was the offended team, the rule book is specific as to what point a correctable situation may be addressed and rectified.

thats kinda what I was thinkin' ... if the offense does not realize it & all of the defense leaves fair territory - well thats just the breaks

There is no reaon to let it get to that point.
