@JasonCashen @balkwhisperer Ideally you’d kill it before any of that could happen.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@JasonCashen @balkwhisperer Ball would be dead as soon as the fly ball is caught.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@Big12Bam @balkwhisperer Well it’s not that hard to figure out if you think for 5 seconds.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@dblackpiano @balkwhisperer He literally just got two bases in that video lol. He is not required to advance to third to get third. It is 100% umpire judgement and they will place him where they believe he would have reached without the obstruction.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@dblackpiano @balkwhisperer That is contradictory. Umpires determine where, it may be no bases at all, it may be one, it may be two. But you are not guaranteed or protected any.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@dblackpiano @balkwhisperer He is not protected anywhere.

@BobNapoleon @balkwhisperer @MiLBEjections @ChasRiverDogs I don’t understand what you mean by this. The positioning is definitely not an issue.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@BenVerlander @ScoringChanges So every umpire who has ever made this call was wrong? Because I have never seen it called the other way. How is that possible?

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@dead_baseball @JKasten187 @ONUG1776 The umpire manual is made for Umpires, they are aware that is referring to a fly ball beyond first or third base. It is easy for someone who is not an umpire to misinterpret it, which is what has happened.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@dead_baseball @JKasten187 @ONUG1776 Incorrectly so.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@JKasten187 @dead_baseball @ONUG1776 @BenVerlander I don’t believe everything I read lol. Announcers don’t know the rules, players don’t know most rules, and I certainly don’t buy into “The MLB said this..” that means nothing to me unless they say who said it. That’s not how quoting sources works.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@dead_baseball @JKasten187 @ONUG1776 I’m aware.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@_Success_Net_ @BKM131313 @FullCountTommy @BulletinBro @cathyb314 @dennistlin Hey Dennis who is your source at MLB that believes this is a foul ball?

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@JKasten187 @dead_baseball @ONUG1776 @BenVerlander Who at the MLB is all I’d like to know. Pretty large organization. Do the janitors there know the rules? I’m not angry at all actually neither of us are changing each others minds. One of us has been to umpire school and one hasn’t. I have 5 examples of this being fair you have 0

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@_Success_Net_ @BKM131313 @FullCountTommy @BulletinBro @cathyb314 Who?

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@JKasten187 @dead_baseball @ONUG1776 @BenVerlander I’m going to move on now. I urge you to attend umpire school and run your argument up the ladder.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@BKM131313 @_Success_Net_ @FullCountTommy @BulletinBro @cathyb314 Exactly lol

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@JKasten187 @dead_baseball @ONUG1776 @BenVerlander Except the foul lines are fair territory. All of them. That is all fair territory.

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@JKasten187 @dead_baseball @ONUG1776 @BenVerlander How can they all be wrong ? That is insane person logic, are you an adult?

[austin @MrAustinMcCurdy]

@JKasten187 @dead_baseball @ONUG1776 @BenVerlander It’s not though. It’s exactly the same. I found another btw. Lmk when you find one.
