Final from Boone Cooper

Who has stats? Heard it was a 1-1 game until a terrible call by the field ump against Boone, which seemed to fire up the Rebels. A very bad interpretation of a rule gave Cooper a dbl play,but Boone tacked on 3 runs with two outs. Great Win for Boone

Bad call? The player came in with his spikes high and was called out! For those of you that didn't think it was high, the shortstop has a cleat mark 3 inches above the knee on his thigh!!! By no means did I think it was malicious but it was definitely high!!!

The reason the cleat mark on the thigh is from the shortstop falling down into the runner!! That's why it was a bad interpretation of the rule.

I'm not sure what you were watching but the shortstop never fell into the runner. The runner is the one who made the contact.

I heard it was a low throw that had the fielder falling over to get the ball in the base path. A parent had it on film and the runner had a perfect slide and shows the defense player going down to get the ball into the base path. I know there is always three sides, home crowd, away crowd and the truth somewhere in the middle.

It definitely was not a low slide. The ump was right there and immediately called him out. If it was a "perfect" slide , he would not have been out.

Have the parent post it then. The actions taken by the crowd when injuries occurred were absolutely ridiculous. You NEVER say something towards a kid that has an injury. Bad enough it being a parent, but someone who calls themselves a coach asking to see cleat marks! SAD!

Actually the call against Cooper at 3rd is what you call a bad call.

Nice game by the Rebels and another nice pitching effort by Ganns.

How about game stats? Who pitched, any good hits, plays. You have to love the district games. A lot of emotions flowing.

You people... Coming from a neutral fan who went to the game today, that runner definitely by no means was intentionally trying to spike the kid. It was obvious (and I mean obvious) that it was under thrown and the shortstop came up to make a play on the ball and he crossed in to the baseline. It is still obstruction because he did not fully control his slide, however these posts about sliding high and such are non sense. The call at third was the correct call as well, but even if it wasn't the correct call, Boone still would have been up 3-1.

 

Now for the actual game, I don't see many beating Ganns this year when he is on the mound. He is a force and attacks you non stop. The Dunn kid for Cooper also pitched well, had a fine outing just didn't have many bats on his side today.

Dunn went 5 2/3 and I think Boone had 1 ER. Ganns went 5 giving up 1 ER. Dunn was the only player for either team to have multiple hits. Ganns and Dunn both doubled for the 2 extra base hits in game. Hits were at a minimum in this game. Boone 7 hits and Cooper 5.

Where was the defender when contact was made with the runner?

 

The choices are:

 

On the base on the LF side

On the base on the CF side

On the base in front of the base (ie between the base and 1st base in the baseline)

On the base on the 3rd base side

Directly on top of the base

I agree, Ganns is tough..
