Johnson Central 7 vs. Sheldon Clark 3

Pink Flamingo Wrote:To clear things up, Todd , after swinging and the catcher dropped strike three, he never left the box, let alone head to the duggout. He just stood there before he ran. Kudos to Mike Hall, he sure will take up for his team! Poorly umpired game all around. The field umpire stood in the field and laughed about how bad the plate umpires strike zone was.

You could not have been watching this game because the batter not only left the box but was all the way in the grass. When the pitch was made the batter swung and missed,the ball popped out of the catcher glove, he quickly picked it up and looked to tag the runner who was going toward the dug out. Once he saw this he rolled the ball to the pitchers mound and he and the umpire and the whole JC team started off the field. GAME OVER RIGHT? Then the SC bench started yelling for the kid to run causing mass confusion. A good indication of how just how over this game was is, Justin Blanton, who was playing short when the batter stuck out, ran back from the firstbase line to pick up the ball because SC runners were still running bases. The field umpire then runs in and says the ball was dropped by the catcher. Coach Shawn Hall then comes out to argue the call but the plate umpire called the batter out for giving himself up, and the ballgame was over. SC coach Mike Hall then goes nuts asking for an explanation which didn't look like he got. THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED.
