What about the batter receiving an additional 2 pitches before the umpires realized their mistake and awarded the batter 1st base from this play. These umpires un-rung the bell at the highest level. WOW!!!

On the fly ball tag up, HP couldn't stay at 3B because U1 wasn't covering HP. If you watch the replay, you can catch U1 only about 1/2 way down the line as R3 scores. No way he was in position to make a call.

With bases loaded, there is no rotation of U1 home. And if U3 chased, then U1 should have a return throw to 3B.

The call at first was brutal but not as bad as the one against Japan the other night. The sliding into first base apparently must make it tough to hear the ball and see exactly where the runner's hands are. I know that you have to be a great umpire to work at this level so even the good ones can have bad calls.

I had a hs umpire once tell me he has never ever blown a call...."ever".

I don't see the kinds and number of mistakes made in NCAA baseball or certainly not MLB games as I do in almost every televised softball game. This and the low quality of play and announcing will make these games un-watchable to the casual fan and particularly a baseball fan.
