Questionable umpiring in monahans-fort stockton baseball game

[panther power]

Wow, what a call and what a time to call runner interference... Stockton falls to 2-1 in district. That unpire has been involved in some "questionable" calls this season. Hope it is not a trend.

Tough Game!

Assuming Seminole beat Lamesa, 3-3A standings now look like this:

Seminole 3-1
Monahans 3-1
Presidio 2-1
Ft. Stockton 2-1
Greenwood 1-2
Pecos 1-3
Lamesa 0-4

Though most people tend to miss it when watching a game...calling runner interference is a pretty simple call because it becomes quite obvious to an umpire when it happens. Now without having been there to see it I can't back him up one way or another but if it was called then it probably correct.

Good Points.... district looking like it's gonna be a race till the end. An apparent "elbow" was thrown by the stockton runner at the second baseman on his way to third.

Top Ten Signs an Umpire Is Nuts


10. His chest protector has large silicone implants.

9. Cleans home plate with his tongue.

8. The first batter has worked the count up to 46 balls, 29 strikes.

7. Makes own face mask out of bubble wrap and duct tape.

6. Was seen checking into Motel 6 with the Philly Phanatic.

5. Three small and very telling words: wears a cape.

4. Keeps running up to fat guys in the stands and yelling, "Babe Ruth! You're alive!"

3. Insists that "baseball fever" is the cause of that weird rash on his back

2. Whenever he sees a player adjusting himself, shouts, "Ball two!"

1. Long after game has ended, he's still squatting.

that would not be interference -- that is malicious contact and that supercedes both interference and/or obstruction on the same play ... if it was an "apparent elbow" the runner would have been called out and restricted to the dugout (ejected).
