Question
Guest jroller
Check out this clip:
Two people sitting up in the pressbox (thus the camera angle), whose opinions I respect, argued for a hit. I ruled an error on the play
They argued what is not obvious in the footage in that the ball had a lot of topspin, hit and kicked to 2B's left making him miss the ball.
I didn't see the fielder contact the ball from my angle at the fence behind home plate. Looked like it went below his glove but, not seeing the spin and kick, having looked down to tap "Ball in Play" it looked like a routine grounder that he overplayed.
Thoughts?
