re: First baseman had wrong foot on the bag restricting his ability to stretch for the throw

quote:

---

The ONLY time the first baseman should place the left foot against the bag to give a clear window is when the catcher is throwing from right in front of the plate on a bunt or a tapped ball. The throw on Friday night was from the middle of the diamond near the mound and more often would be a thro from the pitcher.
