Time Play

Nice example. I wish there was video of the plate umpire's mechanics. 

This one was insanely close in real time. Probably 50/50...so whatever you decide in your games, Be big.

I still haven’t seen an angle that helps me either way on the timing play.  Great call at second base though!

We would normally correct your use of “timing” to describe a time play but since NFHS does also you get a pass:

Yeah, He got it right. Not the best angle though. Tough to see the tag on the leg from where he was. RF side of 2B having the runner and the ball coming at you would have been  a better spot.

Can I blame auto correct?  I wasn’t even trying to say time play ... I was trying to say “timing of the play” but hey, Apple knows better than I do.

So did they score the run or no?

Yes, the run scored.  Madden asked for a review too late.
