Oh wait, maybe that's a bad analogy. <br /><br />Bottom line, big ass catcher blocking not only the plate but the whole line of approach.

Once he started doing that tap dance back to the plate, it was bad news. <br /><br />But you're right, the HR was absolution.Steve Saxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930320282262607468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-75578120604162437172013-07-26T23:11:08.853-07:002013-07-26T23:11:08.853-07:00@Sax

Ump initially called HanRam safe, then realized the runner hadn't hit the plate. Thus, the play was still live, Catcher then tagged HanRam before he could hit the plate.<br /><br />Bottom line: HanRam made base-running mistake and wasn't anywhere near stepping on plate. Ump made mistake by quick-trigger on call at plate, possibly misleading runner to think he was safe and didn't need to do anything else.<br /><br />Weird play, but overall was the right call, and HanRam made up for it later with his homer.Dusty Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09433907034827467502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-82330889661051325882013-07-26T22:49:03.024-07:002013-07-26T22:49:03.024-07:00Just got home.
