Stop making the “the play was non reviewable “ argument.

Every play is “reviewable”. Umps can get together and change a call. It’s VIDEO review that’s not allowed.

now they got EVERYTHING else wrong. Catcher was not touching or in front of the bag and even if you think he was the batter had clearly backed out and given up on swinging meaning you can’t call catcher interference!

I want the SEC to show teams where the catcher should have been positioned.

an umpires group chat has never in the history of the game been called a "review"

It was a bullshite call but this ^^^ needs to stop being said. The rule is clear. Catcher touches home plate or is in front of home plate without the ball, it is automatic interference. Does not matter what the batter does.

I’d argue the home plate ump did “review” this play in his head and change his own call, which is what makes it even worse

He without a doubt in real time signaled out as the players all walked off the field



So the options at this point since he didn’t make the judgement call on the spot

1) heard another field umpires view/judgement (how the hell could that be their call) or

2) he replayed it in his head after the SC coach complained and he overturned his own judgment call minutes after the play which is completely asinine and ridiculous

If it’s not challengeable and judgement call why can they change their minds minutes later?

Needs to be answered

it ought to be a picture of the play, Neal played it perfectly. didn't tocuh/step on or cross home plate. was pretty textbook.

I will never believe any reasoning except that the SC coach started chirping.

It was a designed play by the SC coach. He was hoping to get that call.

It probably came initially from the SC coach. He has the right to appeal certain types of calls. The umps can get together and discuss. A call can be reversed if they deem warranted. So certain calls are reviewable just non video review.

Don't forget, it was the SC coach that brought it up between innings.

So, it was "reviewed."

Total horseshite and while I am glad LSU won, their winning saved the SEC from a crushing embarrassment. It would almost have been better for them to have to eat the shite sandwich.

Once again nothing wrong with reviewing certain calls if the SC coach objected to a call. Just can’t use video which needs to change for scoring plays.

Re-view means to view again.

Every play is not reviewable and this play was not reviewed.

As the announcers said later every play that results in a scored run should be reviewable a la NFL/CFB...

Jay being available today is the only concession you’re going to get. That’s about as far as the sec is going to go to say “yeah we fricked up”. Even the sec umps guy they had in the booth led with “I’m not going to discuss if the call was correct.” They certainly have no issue doing so when it is correct.

The problem here isn’t whether it could be reviewed, it’s that it was reimagined.

or a 3rd option

he "saw"* Neal step on the plate and it was brought to his attention about the rule and the umps discussed to make sure the rule says what it says.



*now obviously he didn't see that since it never happened, but if that's what he always thought he saw in full speed real time, then this scenario could have potentially happened.

Said another way, "I'm never going to admit that they completely botched that call."
