Anyone else notice in the Georgia v Bama game, the GA runners on 2nd are almost two steps off the base before every pitch before the pitcher releases the ball.
How come it's rarely called? You have at least three umpires officiating these games. Everyone gets all worked up about a little leap by the pitchers but allowing the baserunners to get an illegal jump is the difference between safe on a steal and an out or a runner being safe at home plate on a base hit vs a close play and out at home.
What do you think?
