I agree there...**** it..

That makes no sense in any understanding of that rule.

What would the ruling have been if Hosmer's slide went into the catcher's shin guard?

I feel like that's a rule that nobody really understands. So they said **** it, and stood with the original call made.

The interpretation from home plate umpire to home plate umpire is going to be different.

Whoever in New York made that call doesn't understand that rule very well

How is the FSKC audio feed for everyone?

Nah, I was working. Probably just as well...but the kid dominated, no doubt.

Agree... Not a fan of the rule, but somebody needs to explain what about that wasn't blocking the plate.

Now, if they say it's because the throw beat him by a mile, so be it, but his foot was setup in front of the plate and he never moved it.

and then they'll call us out for bulldogging the catcher of course.

Or the rest of the planet doesn't.

Purely a guess, but if that would have happened, they call him safe in NY.

Seems fine.

As long as we're making new rules, how about three throws to first during an at-bat equals a ball..

Tried the old quick pitch
