| 2009-09-12 | Rudy Ens | 10 | 9 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for your help. I appreciate the knowledge, because I made a bad call on that. I thought it was to be higher than 6 ft. Now i know that the ball must just travel a little above the catcher! Thx again. |

| 2009-07-06 | jeff | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank You. I should have ruled a "delayed dead ball" and let the play finish before ejecting the player and requesting a substitute runner. He threw the bat in anger of a previous ruling whereby he argued and threatened me for a judgment call that went against his team. The ejection was legit, but I overstepped my authority in calling him out. I forgot the "delyed dead ball" rule. I'll remember it now. Thanks for your advice. |
