OKSt v Cal
 
Cal batter w/runners on 2nd & 3rd.

Pitch comes, batter checks, but hits ball, PU immediately comes up with "foul", hands high in the air and what do we hear?

"The ball gets away.....er, was that a foul tip" :o

And these folks are getting paid for this? How many on here would do it for nothing?

Missouri-Baylor, 7th inning

Bounder down 1st base line.

Foul ball.

TH: She had both feet in fair territory. You could see her trying to make sure both feet are in fair territory.

They say some dumb things, but I cannot honestly believe they don't know that the feet are irrelevant to a fair/foul call.

No, coach, the second baseman did not tag her on the foot.

The comment on both feet being in fair territory by the TH on the first base line really cracked me up. It also seems that sometimes they can't wait to get to the K Zone to show a call the the PU may have missed. Just once I would love to see them do a high level game behind the plate and see what really goes on. Maybe the Georgia coach chewingg her ear on a close call would bing the TH back to reality.
