    Blue Rocks Baseball Pictures



    Went to a local minor league game today. Here are a few shots:

    The fourth is by far my favorite. I don't know what the second on is all about.

    Great stuff. I agree with the above. I like the 4th the best. BTW was he safe or out in the 3rd one?


    Just so I can be disappointed in the officiating.

    The 1st three shots are sequential. The 1st shot is the batter bunting. The 2nd shot is the 3rd baseman grabbing the bunt bare-handed. The 3rd shot is the play at 1st base.

    According to your shot, he was most likely technically out whether he was called out or not. I say that because the ball and his foot have an approximately equal distance to go in order to reach the glove and the base, and the thrown ball is certainly traveling faster than the man running.

    Probably much harder to decipher in real-time []

    No doubt....but thoseumpires are trained &amp; paid to do just that! I'm sure it looked like a tie to the ump, though, and a tie goes to the runner.
