So you don't understand the difference between standing in front of the plate and over the plate? Are you a UF grad? That explains it.

Good to see SEC officiating is consistently garbage across all sports.

do you know the difference between behind the plate and over/in front of the plate?

The batter had already stepped out of the batter's box so how can the catcher interfere with said batter who has stepped out of the box during the pitch?
And at that point, the batter cannot legally hit the pitch

By LSU fans account of the steal here the batter should be able to swing and hit the catcher since it certainly counts as a ball or strike at home.
Yes, he could have, if he didn’t bail out of the box as soon as he saw the runner coming.

We brought out our compact traveling tarps and pulled them out on the corn dogs.
Some of their fans, who had obviously over embibed on alcohol, thc and bath salts ... they freaked the frick out like someone had just stuck a ghost pepper hotsauce covered corndog up their arse ..... which, I know, they're used to it being mustard, but anyways.
We'll, no doubt, be hearing about it for years from the baseball corndogs.
No telling what it will be next year.

Who overruled the home plate umpire who called him out?

Your coach said after the game that he told the refs that he thought there was interference. It wasn’t reviewable. The home plate umpire called the runner out, so it’s pretty clear USC’s coach initiated the discussion that lead to the overturn.
Whether he planned on using this if the steal was unsuccessful. It doesn’t change the fact that he did start the whole process and the weak-arse crew fell for it hook, line and sinker.

You may disagree with the rule, but the catcher caught the ball before it reached the plate. And that is universally understood to be catcher’s interference.
Read the fricking rule. The conditions are clear. He had to either step on home plate (didn’t), cross home plate (didn’t, his foot was even with the base, but not past it), or make contact with the bat or batter BEFORE the ball arrived. Look at the overhead angle and the stills. None of the above happened.
As for Neal putting his leg forward, the head of umpires said on the broadcast that the catcher is allowed to have one foot out of the catcher’s box while making a catch. He just can’t make contact with the batter or pass home plate. Again, he didn’t.

Can the catcher legally catch a pitch before it reaches the plate? Can he stick his mitt out past the plate and catch the ball like he did in this siuation? Since it was an actual pitch, how could an umpire call it a ball or a strike when the ball didn’t even make it to the plate?
If you rewatch the video, the ump didn’t call a ball or strike. And he didn’t call the runner out or safe. I assume because he had ruled it a dead ball situation due to the catcher moving over the top of the plate.

The home plate umpire initially called the runner out. That should’ve been it since it’s not reviewable. But some SEC official probably buzzed down to tell them the rule. TOTAL & COMPLETE BUSH LEAGUE HORSE SHAT. But what do you expect in Alabama.

Read the fricking rule. There is absolutely no mention of the position of the catcher’s glove. Maybe they should amend the rule to include that, but as it stands today, you already know what the conditions are.

He basically said so in the press conference
