Re: Bad Call at Angels Sox game
Initially I was as surprised as everyone else. However, I'm a little league umpire, and the umpire did the right thing. If I can remember correctly, it is a strike, and it goes in the score book as a strikeout, but also as an error on the catcher. The umpire calls the strike, and then calls the batter out when he is tagged by the catcher. However, I thought that the ball did hit the ground, but only after about 5 replays. The only justification I have for this, however, is that the ball somehow ended up in the heel of the glove (the part farthest from the ground), and the only way I can see that happening is the ball bouncing. However, it was a very tough call and I could be persuaded either way. Huge bummer for the Angels though.
