Either watch the play again or quit lying. He was well out of the box before Neal crossed the plate. That’s not debatable.

Well that seems to offer a lot. I await a response

Plus the batter is clear out of the box

Moral of the story is the batter should have taken a homerun cut.


How can he do that when he is clearly out of the box? How can a catcher interfere when the batter isn’t in the box?

His right foot was slightly in front of the plate. His foot was actually in the field of play when he received the pitch.


The head of umpires said on air that a catcher is allowed to have ONE foot out of the catcher’s box. It may not be clarified in this particular rule, but it evidently elsewhere. He would have had to be on home plate or have BOTH feet out when he received the ball based on that. Based on your picture, he clearly doesn’t.

Do you know why in football games they show offside replays from the sideline, down the line, and not from the endzone? Because that is the best perspective to see whether a player is offsides. Do you know why they use a side angle in close races to see who was in front and not a view from the front? Because that is the best angle to see who won.

When they show football replays, they always talk about the shot that shows the best view. If you want to see whether his foot was in front of the plate, a side angle is the best and most honest look. You may not admit it on here, but you know it is true.

Which of these is a better perspective for comparing two things that are side by side?

He can have a foot out of the catcher’s box. But he can’t put it in the batter’s box if it obstructs the batter. Even just a little bit. Neither can he put it in the field of play. Even just a little bit. And if that straight on view shows anything, it shows the edge of his foot was in the batter’s box where the batter had been standing. No wonder the batter bailed out of the box.

How do you obstruct the batter when he’s not in the box? Look at the picture posted above jackass. Just take the L on this one.

I'll tell you what I can admit.
I know who won both of those races without more than one view.

Either way, lucky for the umpires and conference, we left no doubt after the call.

It's over

This is where we're just going to disagree. There was NO batter in the batters box.

There was no hitter

A pitcher stepped off the mound, threw to home to a catcher that was not blocking home plate, and tagged a runner 5 ft from the plate

You saw what you choose to see...I saw what I choose to see. You've planted your flag on a hill I disagree with, and I think you are dead set on a vision that I don't think happened..

Either way, it's good for the conference that the call didn't affect the outcome

When the actions of the catcher cause the batter to bail out of the batter’s box.

But all of that is a moot point. Catcher's interference is called when the catcher physically hinders the batter's opportunity to legally swing at a pitched ball. Catching a pitch before it gets to the batter is clearly hindering the batter’s opportunity to swing at it.

The catcher caught the pitch before it reached home plate. Regardless of what the batter did or didn’t do, that is catcher’s interference. And as it relates to what happened, here is the rule.

quote:

NCAA: When any defensive player interferes with the batter during a squeeze or steal of home, the pitcher is charged with a balk and the catcher with interference. The runner scores, the batter is awarded first, and all other runners advance one base. (8-2e-2 Ex; 8-3p PEN)


I think it was catcher’s interference. The umpires did too.

You won, be happy.

SEC Explains Balk, Interference Call

quote:

Guillie indicated the play would have been viewed different had Herring stepped off the rubber. Herring threw the ball as a live pitch, which means it is a hittable ball and the catcher interfered by stepping in front of the plate without the ball.

The batter bailed when he noticed the runner stealing home.

I am very happy. Still think it was a bad call and would like to know why it wasn’t called immediately.

The plate umpire wouldn’t be the one to determine if the pitcher stepped off or not. That’s first or third base umpire responsibility.

Home plate ump called him out. Non-reviewable until someone, somewhere decided that it was reviewable, but just this one time.
