The umpire gave the interference signal right away -- so the only discussion is where to place the runner (and whether the ball girl should be removed for the rest of the game).  What did they decide?

I think they gave him 2nd.  I think the 1st base umpire even went to review something, but not 100% sure.

1) FPSR -- very close.  Looked like the runner might have even grabbed at the fielder, but the umpire's pointing to the ground when the coach came out indicate it was just a slide to the side of the base.

2) Batter and Catcher should have been ejected on the initial confrontation.  Will be interesting to see if NCAA hands down extra suspensions before the CWS.

For those that haven't watched the FPSR video, I'd say the 2:45-3:00 replay gives about the best angle of FPSR.  

1) I'd have to say I kind of agree with the announcer (rare) that I'm not sure he really interfered, but I think there was enough of a shoulder rolled into the fielder to warrant an FPSR call.  Let's put it this way, there's no way he'd slide like that unless he was trying to alter the fielder's play.  The SS sold it well, kudos to him.  Just to throw it out there - the veering of the runner into the path of the throw - let's say the throw hits him - we could get two outs there correct?  

2)  I'd be wetting myself if that happened in one of my games, but it didn't seem like it got to the level of ejections with no prior warnings having been given (presumably).  What did you see that would cause you to eject the catcher?  I think I could make a case for unsportsmanlike conduct from the batter but I don't see much from the catcher (again don't know what he said), although I'd certainly warn him.  I can't really call that a fight, everybody just kind of did the "hold me back" posture, although perhaps there were things said that could have been EJ worthy (couldn't tell).  

To extend this, how would you handle the benches clearing, especially the Miami dugout being around home plate as the confrontation began and obviously chirping the BC catcher?  #11 for BC got pretty animated but never engaged in what I would call "fighting" - Would you warn at that point and start dumping if they don't stop?  Watch the thing unfold and see what happens?

And how many times have we seen an (or been the) umpire step back to make the call at the plate and then not get to the line to rule on possible RLI?  Good job!

My favorite part of the bench clearing after the bat flip was no one paying attention to the umpires and still trying to argue,push, shove and yell at each other... then the men with badges and guns stepped in and amazingly those players who were addressed quickly stepped back and found religion and knocked off their stupidity.

Time to arm the umpires?

Excellent RLI call from the plate umpire in a big situation...announcer comments included at the end for your auditory pleasure.

 

 

 

OMG was watching that game and thought the announcers were just awful on this. WTF do they get these guys?

Gee, guess they missed this part of the rule... :D

Rule 6.05(k) Comment: The lines marking the three-foot lane are a part of that lane and a batter-runner is required to have both feet within the three-foot lane or on the lines marking the lane. The batter-runner is permitted to exit the three-foot lane by means of a step, stride, reach or slide in the immediate vicinity of first base for the sole purpose of touching first base.

Any video of the HPU from the OSU v. Arizona game where he called the kid back to the plate for sticking his elbow out?  Great!

Any idea on the top or bottom of what inning?   

Looks like I was thinking of another game:

Not so fast

In the bottom of the fourth, Chanticleers catcher David Parrett was hit in the left elbow by Brian Trieglaff.

As he walked to first, the umpire called him back, yelling, “Oh, no, no, no! You come back here!” The umpire didn’t think Parrett made an effort to get out of the way. Instead of a hit-by-pitch, the pitch was called a ball.
