Catcher far inside, where's your slot?

Also, if she is that far inside wouldn't that put her out of the catcher's box?

It's the catcher's box, not the umpires box. Our job is to SEE what we have to call. If the catcher is legally where she is suppose to be, you better move in order to see what you're being paid to see. Do we tell F4 to move so we can see the tag? The slot is a guideline. If you don't have it, don't make excuses for not doing your job. Find a spot where you can properly do your job.

Well --- like I said, that's what I did. Just had horrible back aches for 2 days afterward.
