BU is too far away to have any credibility in making this call - especially when the lines are gone.

MTD, Jr. and I had a girls' 14U ASA FP game in July where I was the BU and it was the top of the 1st with 2 outs and no one on. The batter hit the ball with both feet in front of the batters box and I made the call from the A position and not a word was said from any of the batter's coaches. In fact, I called her out her next at bat for the exact same infraction. I think that the there are times when the BU in the A position has the best look at this particular infraction. Just my 2 cents.

MTD, Sr.
