  1. Because silo shots (straight up) typically start to arc back towards the plate, or, if otherwise uncaught, carry enough spin such that they take bounces to the foul lines. I actually commend the PU on “reading the field” – skinned, probably hard-packed, grassless infield and an artificial/portable mound are ingredients to bad hops. If the ball had not been touched, and bounced-or-rolled foul, would it not have been a foul ball? So why not tack on “... if fair!” onto the verbal declaration?

  2. I’ll take a stab^ proper mechanics and as u can see from the situation, if the ball dosn’t hit f5, it’s likely a foul ball.

  3. Secondary bad part is... if this is a TI, then $85 is a straight up steal. If it is a Hollow Steel, $85 is a straight up rip off.

  4. Just got my silver frame loaded up with black Team Wendy pads, a Diamond harness and a 6" Champro ventilated TG. Will be getting a test run next week. It is light and seems to have good sight lines. It is certainly, different than more "traditional" designs.

  6. "VanBibber had been verbally chastising him throughout the game." I am NOT--repeat: NOT!!!!--blaming the umpire in any way, but next time he has to deal with an obstreperous coach, he may want to shut the problem down much, much earlier. Yelling at the umpire all game long, and especially at a charity event? Nope.

  7. Agree with Rich. IFF, 2 bases TOP to the other runners.

  8. I'll take a stab... I've got an IFF. I don't see how tripping or falling would negate that call. If an infielder tripped on 2B while camped under the popup, same thing. So once it hit F5 (I assume F5 was in fair territory), it's a fair ball, IFF. Ball then goes out of play, all runners advance 2 bases. 2 outs, R3, R2 score, R1 on 3B.
