First baseman spikes the ball because he doesn't realize his catcher missed home plate, a breakdown

This is what's called 'splitting hairs' by the umpire. Total BS call, not in the spirit of the game. The catcher starts with his foot right on home, makes the catch a hair away, then a strong return throw to first.

Explains why my parlay didn’t cash. NEVER betting Junior College Baseball again.

Walk-off E3. The spike should be a throwing error. And it's half on the first baseman for taking the call for granted. But you're right, catch has to be screaming there.

Turf field, wearing spikes the plate might as well be ice, just make the out call and move along. Home plate is unlike any other bag there’s no grip or ledge stupid call.

I can’t believe people are still finding ways to blame the umpire. There is only one correct call and the plate umpire made it. It was a beautiful call. It was text book.

1. #3 catching the ball would award a base to the runner, scoring him. 2. The third baseman saw it ALL, but could not get anyone to respond. 3. First baseman blameless. 4. Catcher blew the play at the plate, screwed up trying to argue.

#3 commits intentional inference, play is dead, and umpire imposes penalties to nullify the interference. I’m giving the runner home and game over at that point.

Ooops...

Isn’t that E2?
