| braves vs cards wasnt even that bad, not mention them not having the benifit of replay. im assuming you think it was a terrible call because you are a braves fan Reply • Back to Top |
| Seahawks--Packers You could make the argument that it was a legit infield fly if you go by the rulebook. Though there was no excuse for them making the call so late Reply • Back to Top |
| It was a terrible call because the ball landed 250 feet from home. Reply • Back to Top |

| It was not an ordinary effort. Reply • Back to Top |
quote: it would have been, had there not been a miscommunication with the outfielder...again, i disagree with the timing in which the ump called it but its not even close to the terrible call against the pack Reply • Back to Top |
| As a former umpire (highschool) it was a bad call compounded by the fact it was late. And yes, I am a Braves fan.  Edit:  This post was edited on 1/18 at 3:47 pm Reply • Back to Top |
| Debatable, I mean the SS stops moving way before the ball hit the ground so he was there in plenty of time. The fact that it's even debatable makes it not nearly as bad as the Seattle call. Reply • Back to Top |

| Yea way before is probably a bit extreme. But the point was, it's not like it would have been a spectacular running catch or anything. He was definitely underneath it in plenty of time Reply • Back to Top |
 I don't know if that is ordinary effort or not, but a ball hit that far into the outfield is never ruled an infield fly rule. The umpires have to use commonsense. This post was edited on 1/18 at 4:16 pm Reply • Back to Top • Refresh |
