He has it lined up, and I know he has it fair, no signal, we had not worked together much before I just knew he had it fair. I nod and he calls it fair and off we go. The whole thing took maybe one sec. .
The field was in that condition at the start of the game, right? If you knew you had no hope of calling fair/foul based on no line and 1B not being in the right place, why did you even go out and act like you were going to call it? You knew from the get-go you had no shot, didn't you?

Besides, you trying to line it up just got in your partner's way, didn't it?

I went out more for the catch. Tough room. I thought the same in getting in the way, trust me I still think it was 2-3 feet foul, the point was more on not having conflecting calls.

Field, well it was the last game of year for them, anymore need to be said?
