There it is. Was looking for that one.

Difficult call. Until they showed the close up slo mo at about 52 seconds I wasnt sure there was a tag.

Also, much closer to being out of the baseline then the play at the plate in the yankee game but usually not called near a base (when going into it) in pro ball. I think they actually used to teach not to call it here but Im not sure if thats still true.

Tough call.

[benrosen]

OUT!

[Thunderheads]

OUT!

Good job Ben! :)

You just can't possibly know what you don't know, so if you don't know there was a tag how could you posibbly know that there was a tag?

[johnnyg08]

Those are tough calls. It is hard to see a tag from that angle.

I'm telling you, there are big plans for IR coming. Expect the rich daddy's to be showing up at league meetings insisting that the board watch his replay of your call cause his kid was out and it clearly shows safe on his home video. Be ready...

A more profound statement has never been made.

Real speed, I didn't see a tag

Oh, I'll be ready, ....to smack that effing camera out of his hand!!!

I would tell him the same thing I told the wrestling coach, take that home and the next day you are having a really good day, watch it and it will piss you off all over again.

Instant replay has been around the NFL and college football a few years and it is still illegal in Fed ball. Yeah, mom & pop can record something, but it carries no weight.

If this is what Little League boards are like, remind me when I have kids to NEVER join one.

Yeah and so has single game playoff eliminations. Look how baseball fans have reacted to that change this year.

I've never seen anything like that happen.

[johnnyg08]

TV networks are in favor of replay b/c it means more advertising time. It's always about the money

I don't know.

never been involved in LL specifically, but youth ball in general is extremely political. I was on the board for 2 seasons and told em to cram it when I got nominated the next year. They are ALL horsesh*t.
