My understanding of the story is that all but the 1st base umpire missed it. Even though he clearly saw it hit the foul pole, he chose to say nothing...

Here is a video from a group called, "Improv Everywhere" when they decided to make a little league game more like a big league game. ...
Friday August 1 Today was what I had hoped for at the Senior Regional. We had put most of our experiences from the first couple games into action. We had...
If you recall my post....Sunnyvale pulled the same play to retire a runner in the Arizona State Championship game.    If you recall my post....Sunnyvale...
Third base coach is not the manager. You, U1 in a three man crew, make an interference call. Third base coach is questioning call. Do you refuse to talk to...
BTW, Pete Barnhardt, a CA District 4 umpire, will be working at first base for the Big League Baseball World Series final today on ESPN at 11AM PST. He's a...
Henry, "Sunnyvale" is actually "Sunnyside". Bruce AZ-5 (Neighbor to AZ-12) ... ============= If you recall my post....Sunnyvale pulled the same play to retire...
Two things: 1) On that play at the plate early on, I never saw an "out" call rung up. Looks as if Ed Nelson was trying to keep the PR catcher and the SC runner...
Maybe. I had this sitch in my regional. Coach wanted to question. Told him I would only discuss with manager. Told mgr what I saw and didn't need help. Coach...
Rita, Where did you get the direction to not talk to coaches? Nothing in the tournament rules say that a coach can't represent his team. Look on T-10 A. 1. "A...
Ed, My thoughts exactly. Was the runner out or not? What was Ed looking for when he peered into the mess and then followed after the catcher? Maybe he...
It would have been nice to see some Little League patches on the players and umpire if these really were Little League teams. Pretty neat for the kids in any...
I frequently read posters saying things like, "He was the coach and not the manager so I wasn't going to talk to him." Maybe it's just referring to times that...
So cal takes on No Cal for the Western Regional Little League Softball title tomorrow at 2pm So cal beat them early in the tournament 6-5 .... Should be a...
That's one of the things I dislike the most about the 6 umpire system: Competent umpires thinking they aren't worth anything because they don't get a position...

Joey, In our Senior Regional, our final day has a semi at noon and final at 6. The guys that are working the lines are moving in to the infield or plate for ...
Rita, Andy was exactly right on this one. Coach was fishing for a sympathetic ear and couldn't find one. He was also trying to either get in the pitcher's ...
Had my final plate appearance of the tournament and it was a blast. Last winner's bracket game had SoCal (Port Hueneme) vs. Hawaii (Pearl City). As the Hawaii...
Regular Season Rules... Rule 2(I think) defines the duties of each the Manager and coach. It clearly states that the Manager has ALL discussions with the...
I'm all in with Rita on this one. WOW! You are one of only 14 umpires that were sent by their districts to work the Regional Tournament. One of 14 from an...
Andy That is a great way to look at it ..... and since I have done a few ( games over the years for the So Cal team.......I'll go out on the field today like I...
