I believe SCUmp is from SC. In SC, we don't have appeals. When the rule change was made to require appeals for missed bases, etc., South Carolina chose to not adopt the rule change.

The change was not optional.

However, and this is not meant to reflect poorly on SC folks, I find it hard to believe that the state organization doesn't have enough confidence in their coaches and umpires to understand the rule.

I have never believed the onus should be placed on the umpire, never will. I will admit though, when the rule changed, some of the Fed-only umpires found it hard to grasp this change along with the obstruction change.
