leaving base early

Late in a world cup game on Sunday a runner stole 2nd. Replaying on TEVO showed her foot off the bag while the pitcher still in windup with ball and arm extended behind. Had not released the ball but runner already off the bag going to 2nd. Runner safe at 2nd. In real time it looked like a clean steal. Is it even possible to detect that in real time.

2. Impossible to miss that out call at 2nd. Hayward was very safe. Bad call at crucial moment.

I didn't watch the game because I was switching back and forth between the Indians-White Sox baseball game and the USGA Sr. Men's Championship. That said, me thinks you are a Canadian fan is not happy that your team lost and crying in your beer.

There was an out call at 2nd against Canada in 7th inning that looked pretty clear she was safe.
