There is sunlight between the first baseman's foot's shadow and the bag's shadow. Not much, but some. Zoom in on the pic. Looks like the ump, who had a great angle, made the right call.

Yea, I don't think LSU fans will have problem at all bitching about officiating this fall.

It was a pretty bad call on the non-hit by pitch last night.

Some days you get the calls. Other days you don't. It's baseball.

I was there, his foot came off the bag but appeared to get it back on.

We got very lucky there. Ump seemed to take it out on us by shrinking the strike zone. He didn't give us any favors at that play at the plate either. At full speed the whole world thought his hand touched the plate.

It certainly looks like he is out. Not sure that I buy that he foot was off the bag because it never moved. I just can't say for sure either what, that angle doesn't show either way.

Sunlight between the shadow of the foot and the shadow of the bag. Ump was in perfect position to make the call. Gonna have to defer to the ump. Tv angle isn't good enough.

So you really think that umpire just decided to make it up that he was off the bag? No replay showed an angle that would have reversed his call.
