Odd play last night

When the play is questioned, as opposed to argued, I tell them "it's just me tonight and I call what I see...or don't see".

I don't like making calls based on players' reactions because there are some good actors out there.

It changed directions (or really speed) about 2-3 steps up the first line - it was clearer than what you describe.

So you are saying that the ball that she hit, hit her while she was still in the batters box, became a little dribbler to F5 and as an umpire you would call her out.[/QUOTE]Wanna re-read his post? He called her out for being thrown out at first on a dribbler to F5.
