Nicholls vs Texas A&M Corpus Christi Baseball

Getting it right is all that matters

Judging by your team affiliation (Astros) maybe we can revoke some of those WS games. Go bang on some more garbage cans

What rule was misapplied?

Should just resume bottom of first and if the Aggies score 5 runs, they win.

Because once the game is played under protest and the play in question was ruled incorrectly, the game restarts at that moment. Wiki George Brett pine tar

Except it sounds like the “error” was that the umps weren’t allowed to get the call right.


Here’s what happened: Batter was hit by pitch as check swinging. He was awarded first base. It was then reviewed and determined he swung, so he was returned to the plate from first base. The technically correct call. Except the umps weren’t allowed to review the check swing. So the NCAA is saying they should have left him on first base. Which would have been the right procedure, but the wrong call.

They are literally replaying an entire game to uphold an incorrect call made in the bottom of the first inning. So if “getting it right is all that matters”, the results of the game should have stood.

Apparently, the NCAA disagrees with you. To them, procedure matters more than getting it right

The protest needs to go away. Just protest it the moment it happens, and then everyone figures out the correct ruling right then and there. I don’t understand why baseball thinks it’s ok to review a protest later on? Like why not figure out the correct ruling whenever it happens? Did A&M protest immediately or did they file a protest after the game?

Well one is the NCAA, occurring early in the season, where there is time to fix a mistake versus the NFL with their Super Bowl in a couple of weeks
