...did anybody see the LLWS game between Ohio and Washington yesterday? On the closing end of a double play, the ball just beat the runner by the proverbial hair, a situation that I have been taught to always "sell." The umpire at first punched his right arm forward in an uppercut fashion, and rested the right elbow in the palm of his left hand. That just didn't work for me. Look kind of sloppy and unconcerned.
