The Henderson State Reddies beat Northeastern State RiverHawks, 11-10, in the NCAA Division II Central Region. Northeastern State trailed by four with two outs and the bases loaded when Blaze Brothers hit one to the wall, driving home all three runners. Unfortunately, Brothers was called out at second base.

Then make your argument with the runner safe at first and the game still ongoing.

In football, the refs are part of the field. Wouldn't it be the same in baseball? For sure the ump was in the wrong but that doesn't mean he is automatically safe at second.

Call might have been blown at 2nd too. Ump should’ve used some common sense and called him safe if it was bang bang. Bc it was only bang bang bc of the retarded umpire in the first place.

Why is the runner, after being "tackled" by the ump to the ground, still trying to take second base?

That’s baseball.

If that’s “baseball”, then it’s a broken sport that will continue to die.

Umpire was trying to move to get into better position and wasn’t paying attention to the base runner, ran right into his path. Imo should’ve given the runner second run scored dead ball.
