Sounds like he’s saying, based on your examples, there has to be a pitch for a BALL, not a balk.

“Well there goes my perfect game”

“Coach, we need another hat or another pitcher”!

@834k3r And to add, U3 never went out, he just turned. I was merely stating, esp with 60 bases, moved back and covered both.

Roberts was going out to save his player. Hunter told him he was walking away and not to follow him. Roberts did and got tossed. Thanks Jomboy!

PU has HP coverage here. Based on the situation of this play, I get where you’re coming from, but we can’t change mechanics based on this one situation. If anything, U3 could have gotten both.

I wish it was “something like” that! Even without looking you still have a chance!

He didn’t balk to 2nd!

Um, maybe just give him another baseball, from your right bag!

@SeeingEyeDog I didn’t say I wouldn’t address it.

As U3, I’m not giving an official warning for arguing balls and strikes. Nor as U1 or U2.

Well damn, that conversation went LEFT in a hurry!

I wish I knew all this b4 I posted, otherwise I would have recommended you tell him to go himself!

#1. Sometimes SH*# happens. As PU, you have to recognize when it does. Once there was no call by BU, come out big and make the call. The last thing you want to do is have a no call which makes it look like neither of you saw it. #2. A little nit picky. Not sure why BU going out or pivoting makes a difference. Either he does or doesn’t shouldn’t matter, just react and cover as needed. As a side, this is your first playoff game? Your responses should have been, “OK THANK YOU”!!!
