| Aug. 5 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | r first it is an umpires judgement on that play,not pro-testable.he should of called illegal pitch,than warn the pitcher,if the batter swings that is his tough luck.i'll check with some other umps,but i think that is the way it should of gone down.personally i don't think there should of been a do over.... the other stuff is between you and ssusa...... |

| Aug. 5 just joe 33 posts | r IT DEFINITLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN CALLED AN ILLEGAL PITCH,BUT IT WASN'T.WHAT YOU ARE NOT GETTING IS THE BATTER SWUNG AND MISSED. THE UMPIRE LET HIM STAY AT BAT BECAUSE OF THE WRONG RULING.HE WENT AGAINST THE RULE BOOK. |
| Aug. 5 Pricer Men's 50 621 posts | r Your right Joe, batter should have been called out. Period. Ump, UIC & tourney director have some explaining to do. Would you except an apology? |
| Aug. 5 stick8 1992 posts | r Unless the umpire screamed "NO PITCH" while the pitch was in the air, that's a strike out!! |
| Aug. 5 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | r i see where your going,and maybe you could have a protest.your are saying he applied the rule wrong as it being an illegal pitch(for excessive speed),right.no way there should have been a do over,i'm taking that your were on defense when this happen to your team.yes in that situation the rule is"illegal pitch,batter swings to bad play on,warn the pitcher".there is no way the defense should of been punished for the batter swinging and missing,thats his fault.now with a lazy ump who didn't get out the illegal pitch call in time,maybe he was trying to make amends for it,which he shouldn't be doing either. |
