NCAA Championship Umpiring

[oppool]

Why does FED let the pitchers step back when NCAA and ASA do not?

I would think at this level NCAA World Series there would be some tape watching and going over the games so the stepping outside the 24 by the pitchers and the batters that have a tendicy to step out of the box the umps would be waiting for

Weakest Mechanic seen: the Strike 3 call by many of the Blues would be called at the best WEAK. Also dont see them getting far enough down the 1st base line trailing the runner as I have been taught

UCLA batter today called out for being out of the batters box was not even close to being out do not know what the PU saw on this play when so many have been during the tournament

Coaches have seemed to handle themselves very well BUT the Defensive play by almost all teams seem to have been pretty weak so far
