I feel bad for the ump who had to make the call on that last picture.  That looks pretty close.

I was at the game sitting behind the first base dugout.  It was close for sure, but I think the ump made the right call. 

But then again, I am both a Dunedin fan and a Mike McDade fan. 

The few Lakeland fans there didn't protest too much.  But they were drinking heavily.

I think you're supposed to watch the foot hit the bag while you listen for the ball to hit the glove. The ball must be traveling several time faster than the foot here.

Mamboon, hit the O key before you hit the R key, please.  (Three times ain't a typo.)  His name is Pastornicky.  Sorry to be "picky", if you think that is.   (I can be far worse, if you like.)

Dewey, So how'd you like the most important parts of the post... the photos? 

The second picture is great.  Everyone is intently watching the action develop at home.... except for the young, attractive girls sitting behind the dugout (above the umpire's shoulder).  And in the first picture they couldn't be bothered by the game either.

mamboon     I did say please.  And I did like the photos.  Thanks very much.

I never understand when someone gets annoyed at being corrected when they misuse language:  when I mess up, I like to know, so I don’t do it next time.  If you keep writing sloppily, people stop respecting your views.  Or possibly even paying attention to you.   Do *you* feel good, for example, when someone can’t even get take the trouble your name right?

The double play picture is a bit strange.  Pastornicky appears to be well to the left of the baserunner and a step towards first base, which is an unusual place for a shortstop to be when completing the double play (normally he's throwing from over top or to the right). I guess that he was playing almost right up the middle, and on a ground ball to the pitcher was waiting at the bag and sidestepped to the left.
