You can't see home plate and second base from where he is standing, he is basically on first base.  If he was deeper towards right field maybe but from where he is at he can't.  You can see he is looking at home and would have no clue when the tag was made.  Same thing from third base, the only umpire that could possibly see both is home plate but he would have to move behind the plate and not in line with third where he is at.  I don't know what the umpires responsibilities are or where they are supposed to be positioned but can tell from the picture none of them would be able to see both at the same time making it hard to be accurate with the call.  You can barely see both in the camera and it is behind the fence giving it a much wider view than any of the umpires would have.  It would seem the only way to get it right would be for one umpire to watch for the tag and make a vocal signal the other umpire watching the plate could hear to know when the tag was made.

Umpire was in correct position for a play at the plate BUT not in position for what transpired and he knew it.... he asked for help, 2 0f 3 said runner scored first and he went with it.......2 of the 4 were definitely wrong, the only ump that was right was the one in the rundown.

I don't think paying attention was the problem.  That's what I am trying to say is I don't think anyone could possibly see both at the same time and they are left to do the best they can with what evidence they have.  Don't know the solution to be able to get that call made more accurately.  Maybe an umpire can let us know how it is supposed to be handled?

i could understand the crew missing this call if it is a closer call, but the guy is 13 or 14 feet (the dirt at home plate is 26 to 28 feet in diameter) from home plate when the tag was made, allowing time for the heads of the umpires to turn and see the guy is just arriving. 

 

In the video you see the plate ump turn to look infield as runner crosses and it is clear that the out had already occurred. Wasn’t even close that is what is bad.

You are so misinformed! As always! 

This play is not a hard play to umpire,seen it 100's of times called right on every level on plays far closer than this.Why make excuses for 3 umpires who clearly were wrong. You watch for the tag first then look for runner touching base. The 2 umps that said runner scored before tag clearly were guessing,because plate was 15 feet away minimum from runner at point of tag out.

      Will Biden Be The Democratic Nominee For President?

      That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.

      I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.

      But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling.

      Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
