That is something called in the umpires judgement.<br /><br />Seriously, how can one say it was incorrect/correct. To be correct/incorrect because of what "The League" judges to be a swing or not. That's a pile of poop. One can agree/disagree with a swing call, but YOU CAN NOT CALL IT INCORRECT/CORRECT and give/take points away.<br /><br />I will say I agree with the swing call though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-32940473821419399682011-06-27T19:28:27.553-07:002011-06-27T19:28:27.553-07:00Who said anything about definition of swing?Who said anything about definition of swing?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-70291467379722232252011-06-27T19:22:06.013-07:002011-06-27T19:22:06.013-07:00That's right, using the definition of swing, T...That's right, using the definition of swing, Tom Hallion swing call was correct...Oh really, so how do we determine it was a swing or not?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-56407910050179179102011-06-26T22:38:21.973-07:002011-06-26T22:38:21.973-07:00@Anonymous 7:36pm

And I didn't realize until he was towering over Mattingly that he is like McClelland tall.<br /><br />Conroy is this year's AAA star, like Bellino last year.

That ejection was also over balls and strikes, and the call was ultimately ruled correct. This ejection established pitch f/x quality of correctness precedent, or the Kulpa Rule, which grants umpires the quantified borderline px values between absolute 0.901-1.000.Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06361341904305010488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4917712291092871273.post-18319647832010973402011-06-25T18:56:35.097-07:002011-06-25T18:56:35.097-07:00"If you're at the other end of the dugout..."If you're at the other end of the dugout and you're screaming out onto the field the umpires just need to disregard that.
