ousafe Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 (Re: usa today article) Sad that Sally was not clear that the third out was an appeal. Wtf she's the ncaa softball umpire coordinator - she should know better than to use the term "force" there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyCat Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 I think what he really needs is a congressional censure! (Oops sorry, is that political?) What about a reprimand or a rebuke! That would teach him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here it is: "So we went to review, and as soon as the run scores, and the subsequent third out of the inning was made at second base, that’s a timing play."
