They were with out a doubt IP's, not questioning that. Just questioning the timing. I agree the umps are doing a good job. Although if your going to call IP's they need to call all of them and they are not.
ASAPAump I disagree, they have let alot slide. I wish I new were to find the stats.
Nevertheless I believe the umps are doing what their superiors ordered. My argument is with the NCAA not strictly following their own rules throughout the year. In reality I think it's a stupid rule and believe it should be changed. I don't see it helping the pitcher at all.
Arizona led the PAC 10 in IP's this past season with 10. Two AZ pitchers were 1st&2nd on the list, Fowler with 6 IP's and Akamine with 4 IP's.
