![]() My partner had it, and had the angle needed to make such a judgement. That is good enough for me, his judgment is/was not in question. The mistake was simply not calling the violation he saw because he thought I was going to call it. (again, my angle and POV was from inside the diamond. The 'play' and failed tag was between the coaches box, and dugout. ) While I could not tell from the veering that it was avoiding, my partner did. His added input and POV was enough. |

Someone called me a mudder, the udder day.
I wonder now if that is what they meant.

I guess I'll ask the question. Why were you involved in the run down when you had multiple runners behind it? I know this was 14 U but there could have been a play during or after the run down that would have had you very much out of position to make the call. This sounds like it was the plate umpires call all the way.

But that is a damn good question. I just assued it was a 3U system, guess I shouldn't had.

I do agree with your application of 10.3.C, and your placement of runners after the reversal of the call. At the risk of stating the obvious, the PU has the lead runner on the base hit. When she rounded third, she is the PUs runner, the BU then has the trailing runner. The PU should have covered the rundown by himself, while the BU covered the trailing runners, while being available to offer another set of eyes if needed. If you are both on the rundown, you have no idea what happened while R2 and R3 were advancing to second and third base during the rundown.

We are taught this mechanic from the umpire manual "There are four times when the base umpire will make the call at third base. 1) On the B/R on a triple with no runners on base 2) On the last runner into third base 3) On a lone runner on fly ball advancement 4) On any return throw from the plate area or cut of by a player." As soon as there was a 'return' throw, (and I button hooked from the C slot), I was drawn into to the call at third. |
