this is probably the best post i've read on this issueanton wroteCOLONi dont think anyone with common sense is arguing that the rule should not be applied in this case. it's a rule, period, but the fact that the ump called the play dead, prompting everyone to stop playing, then decided lol jk run counts is a big problem.
he's assuming had he not called the play dead that odor would have scored.
that's a real dangerous precedent to set - guessing about what would've happened during the play. especially considering the bottom of the inning saw three consecutive horrific errors - who would've guessed that? perhaps odor trips and falls before making it to the plate?
the whole way it was handled was just so bad.
well done
