You have to realize that here in umpire-land, we usually talk about things using actual rulebook definitions, not common "fan" terms.

Tim McCarver and Joe Morgan know more about baseball than 99.99% of baseball fans, now you might not be a fan of their announcing, but that is a different story.

They may know how to play the game but they are woefully ignorant about the rules of the game that they were paid to play. They prove this on a constant basis.
