A poster yesterday stated the first baseman used poor fundamentals by using his left foot on the base. He was right . He could have stretched and made the catch to end the game which would have made the argument moot. The poster was right..

It’s like when they made up the pass interference exception during the auburn game in ~2006

He was wrong then, and you are wrong now. It’s obvious that the first baseman, in that situation, has to present a target well to the inside of the first base line. That is the only way to get an unobstructed throw from the catcher to the first baseman. And to do that the first baseman needs to have his left foot on the bag. Use your head. If he had his right foot on the bag he’d have had his back to the catcher as he stretched to the inside of the line.
