Saturday, on the frozen tundra of Firestone Stadium;
Bases loaded, batter hits grounder between SS & 3rd. Third baseman fields it and throws runner out. But wait! Runner on second interfered with SS - who was also attempting to field hit ball.
Blue called runner on second "out" for intereference, but put runner who scored back on third and called batter safe at first. Seems logical to me since it's a "dead ball" as soon as runner and SS collided. However, coaches argued, and umps discussed for the next 5 minutes.
Was the right call made?
