I didn't see anything malicious there. He just ran in standing up. Does the runner have to stand there and let the guy come tag him? I smell BS there.

does that carry over to game 3, if necessary? I know some ejections carry over to the next game or is that just for coaches? |

I think his arm was a few inches away from his chest, shielding himself. Looked to me like the catcher's tag pushed his arm up.

Corky didn't really stand up for him to much after the umpire explained it to him.
If there was any doubt, Corky would be out of the game to. The coach is supposed to stand up for his players if one of them get kicked out unjustly. And none of the other players for USM stood up for their guy either. And regrdless of where he hit him, you can't jab your elbow at somebody face, chest or whatever. Like I said, he would probably still be in the game if he had just kept his arm down where he had it to start with. "Because just being good kids who make good grades isn't good enough anymore."- John Cohen
"This league doesn't care how hard you try. This league cares about having real players who can perform certain skills. If you try to throw a fastball in and you miss the middle of the plate, the league doesn't care that you're a really good kid. The game says you better execute the pitch." - John Cohen |

Second, the ball was there WAY before the USM guy. This was not a bang-bang play, there was zero chance the USM player was going to get to the plate unless he took out the catcher. Since that is illegal there was no need to even make an agressive move. And no matter how you feel about the rule it IS the rule. As far as the Florida player, yeah he talked but he just got jacked under the chin. I would talk to. But he didn't stick around trying to start a fight or anything. I think the umpire got it right. The USM guy broke the rule which calls for being tossed. The Florida guy taunted but only because he just got jacked, so that too was really the USM players fault. The ejection was the right thing to do given the rules of College Baseball. |
