He should have stood up raised his arms in victory and took a bow.
Interesting. He made the right call, but his umpiring mechanics are a bit unorthodox.
the right call? I don't think that ball was inside the batters box; and I think the hitter flinched his elbow into the ball.
I don't see any movement into the pitch.
This call is the reason pitchers don't throw inside anymore. fastball that looks like a strike but because the guy wears an arm pad and hangs his elbow over the plate he is awarded 1st? These umps are ruining the game. Outlaw the pads and then they will actually have to "earn" the bag. Bob Gibson just threw up watching this.
He'll never live that down. Totally should have taken a bow after that one
My son played with the batter during this past summer. His expression is great. He looks totally bewildered with what is going on...
Not the way Rhode Island wanted to gain attention for its first game of the season!
He should have gotten up and called himself 'safe'...
OMG, that was funny...all he needed to do was a tactical roll at the end.
I do think it was the right call though
