So you make your initial call which is already tough to determine. Then you backtrack and say you need time to think about an already tough call. So you overturn it without any evidence just…….because maybe it could have possibly went the other way? Let’s take an already hard to determine call and add more questioning into it just…….because maybe?
THIS is what I've been wasting paragraphs trying to say -

In no baseball rule anywhere does a batter with two strikes ever step out of the batter's box and be awarded 1st base, And no where in baseball does a runner score a run without ever touching home plate. These umps missed it all over, and without a replay and the home ump calling out, that was the decision and no other ump was in position to make a case otherwise. This was just plain downright cheating and the HR was completely appropriate to right the wrong.

It’s just such a tricky situation that relies on a few players (and the crew) to notice the slightest move by the pitcher (did he step off the rubber) in such a compressed timeframe (seconds).
This is the only aspect I have not got an absolutely firm position on - I really don't know the actual definition of 'when the pitcher begins an official pitch'
To me - it looked like he was delivering a pitch - but the batter was already stepping out of the box ----- confusing situation for sure.
bottom line - regardless of whether it was a pitch or just a throw to the cacher - the catcher did noting wrong = by the rule - IF it was a pitch, he did make it HARDER for the ump to see where his feet were - but he has no way of knowing which way the ump will rule - so to me, what he did covered his actions for HOWEVER the ump ruled.
Except for the ump changing his mind on a suggestion from the opposing team.

Again, the call was wrong but nowhere is it stated you can’t argue a play and/or the umps overturn a previous call. They didn’t review it, they just changed their call. Like it or not, that’s allowed.
Does that happen often?

I agree with this. Which then begs the question how do you over turn the call on the field with a “judgement call” that you cannot be 100% sure about?
They keep trying to feed up this judgement Bullshite. The call was out. They never acknowledge how they were able to overturn a call on the field that was not reviewable. It’s like overturning an out call at first with no video review. Let’s just have a vote by the umps on every call in the game.

South Carolina, as a baseball program, has been like this since they joined the SEC. I know that I am telling my age here, but does anybody else remember what happened the first time they came to BR for a weekend series? I'm a little unclear about the specific details, but the game was called because SC had to catch a plane on the Sunday. The game was tied and Tanner (I think) was stalling and stalling for several innings and then approached the umpires telling them they were going to miss their flight. The game ended in a tie was was referred to as the "Plane Out" game. The final score should never be a tie in a baseball game, but we have good old South Carolina to thank for that one! Also for the travel day curfew rules that were put in place by the SEC after that incident. All because SC baseball did not know how to plan appropriately. After that debacle, the whole nonsense with the tarp last season came as no surprise to me!
Geaux Tigers! Let's win this thing today!
