Episode 93 - An End of Game Appeal Scenario

We tackle what happened, the rule behind it, whether we thought the umpire crew handled it correctly, and what you should do in similar situations. In our social media segment, we take a look at a post asking about what you do about a strange double first base situation. We explain what the rulebook says about it and what we would do if this happened in one of our games.

Episode 92 - Listener Questions Volume 1

First up, Adrian asked us about some scenarios with obstruction at first base. Next, Joe asked us about changing a judgment call at third base and about umpires getting in the way while a fielder is making a play. Lastly, Vernon asked us about U1 calling pitching lane violations. This was a fun episode and we always enjoy interacting and reacting to our listeners' questions, so if you have some yourself, please send them in.

Episode 91 - Stump the Chump Volume 2

David was kind enough to be our "chump" again this episode, which is good because Pete is more Alex Trebek than Ken Jennings. We cover nine scenarios including: equipment, double first base, batter interference, substitutions, projected substitutions, batting out of order, look back rule, two-way communication, and player conferences. Give this episode a listen to see if David redeems himself from last time!

Episode 90 - Mining the Socials pt 2

We tackle several scenarios ranging from bedazzled gloves (check comments for the images), malicious contact at first base, a runner missing home plate, interference when an out occurs, the umpire's role in impartially enforcing rules and not coaching, tie goes to the runner, and calling a ball hitting a bat in the field of play that was kicked by the catcher.

Episode 89 - Stump the Chump Volume 1

Just so we're clear... the title was David's idea ;) We tackle situations including communications devices, obstruction, bodycams, and DP/FLEX. Our social segment this week is one inspired by some more reports of "that umpire" at games.
