OK, so in this case they can change the call to strike and also presume the runner doesn't make it to first base and rule him out? I've been confused about how they have been presuming the rest of the play with this ruling.
I think AH was a real pro in handling this situation. Who says suck it up and deal with the bad call is what coaches want? I've never dealt with a coach who has wanted me to make a bad call, know it, and let it go...that's just crazy!
Um.... Let's stay on topic here. That is two completely different scenarios.. Are you actually being serious? If you actually do umpire and think that you can stop a play call it foul and then call a runner out you should probably head back to umpire school, maybe little league school?
does not apply at all. beginners
you are correct, and that has been my point. I've umpired at the college level myself and it is ridiculous that sometimes throw rules at people that do not apply at all... it's pretty funny actually.
Because Angel Hernandez IS a terrible umpire.
Jeremy...It might help your cause...and since you seem to have umpired longer and at higher levels than any one else here, maybe we could all learn something from you other than how not to contribute needlessly to a forum...if you would actually post a reason why the rules don't apply instead of just criticizing them..and then once you do that you can post the rule(s) that actually do apply..since as I'm sure you must be well aware, an umpire's job is to know and enforce the rules of baseball and we must be able to back up every decision we make with a proper interpretation of the rules.
I'd say 5.11. Once the ball is dead, there's no mechanism for declaring a live ball except with the pitcher on the mound ready to pitch:
"5.09 The ball becomes dead ... when—(e) A foul ball is not caught..."
"5.02 ...While the ball is dead no player may be put out, no bases may be run..."
"5.11 After the ball is dead, play shall be resumed when the pitcher takes his place on the pitcher's plate with a new ball or the same ball in his possession and the plate umpire calls 'Play.' ..."
