Once practiced and getting right, it really is a beautiful technique and a whole lot better than the old, traditional '3rd base extended' way of taking plays at the play. It's opened up a much better way of seeing the whole play!!
so in the third example, did the runner just not feel his foot get tagged? Why was he so upset on the call? Yell louder, maybe the ump will change his mind....
Yesterday I had a play form just like that last one did, and the runner acted the same way. He was out by 2 feet and claimed he slid under the tag. I think in these cases, a runner’s adrenaline is so high they might now quite “feel” the tag in some instances.
