Texas v ASU

I also thought the foul we dropped in the 7th inning was likely a fair ball - I certainly think U1 who made the foul call after going out, what, 3 steps had a far inferior angle on that to the PU who would have been on the line.

Hook Em!

Agreed. She was too close, off the line a few steps, and had a very limited field of view and a poor perspective.

No affect to the game, the batter roped the next pitch down the line anyway.

Ahh, the umpire "Get Out of Jail Free" card after he/she blows a call.

Of course it was fair! Both of the fielders feet were in fair territory when she touched it! Where the Hell do they get these umpires that don't know that!?! It was very clear on the 6 replays that I saw! Geeeez.....it's a good thing we got that hit on the next pitch or that umpire would be in big trouble!
