[@Bravesfan12345]

Not the umps fault. They weren’t allowed to review it. They made the right call assuming they thought the catcher stepped on home plate. It’s an awful rules the umps did their job.

[@Quawnn]

Extreme Over exaggeration lmao.

[@sgrady1989]

So what exactly was...bad? The catcher cannot step up so that the batter doesn't have a way to swing..whether he swings or not.

[@keithjung1212]

@@sgrady1989 The batter stepped out of the box.

[@andrewyeats1787]

@@sgrady1989the call made was that he cannot step on or in front of home plate on a steal before he has possession of the ball. He did neither of those things as proven by video evidence. It had nothing to do with the batter or the batter swinging. Especially since the batter stepped out of the box when he saw the runner stealing from third… so the horrendous call is that they let the run count when the out was played perfectly and legal.

[@nickx3869]

8-0, damn what a comeback. South Carolina got too cocky too quickly.

[@neildorrity9507]

Nope South Carolina just sucks , and it continues with a ton of errors & awful coaching. Carolina needs A NEW COACHING PROGRAM FOR 2025 & ON.

[@michaelp2259]

Coming from a carolina fan i agree. They need a complete reboot. Why the hell he brought monte lee back as a hitting coach. Left Clemson and clemson wasnt a good hitting team now they have a new hc and are a better team and better hitting team. Also they committed more errors than ive seen a sc team commit in a long time. Maybe more this season than the last few combined

[@Chicken-Emperor]

Not cocky. Just really bad defense. 7 errors in two games against LSU this week. And really could have been more like 10 if the scorers table hadn’t been so forgiving. Can’t win games giving up that many unearned runs.

[@Rikodesinko]

Batter left the box during the pitch and with a runner on base...that's 2 strikes right there and end of inning.

[@stun2187]

That’s interesting. Also makes me wonder though if they go with the same ruling they did saying Neal was on or in front of the plate would that not be catchers interference even without a runner stealing from third? I guess if the batter steps out of the box like you pointed out it would be strike three immediately then which would technically be before Neal moved up… crazy play…

[@beast4x4trd12]

And would have been out number 3... Sadly the results of this mess is Jay Johnson getting tossed AND suspended for tomorrow's game... that just ain't right!

[@heydude36]

Batter left the box during the pitch. Not catchers interference. Horrible call under the circumstance. Rule was misused in my opinion.

[@LifeUser]

He did the "Monster" Smash, a SEC game ending bash. There needs to be a rule change on scoring plays being able to be reviewed. Wrong call, I watched the video of the Ump trying to explain but video shows it was a wrong call. Thankfully, it didn't cost a team the game.

[@NonMonFrere]

I paused the video to say. Well done to the SC Pitcher #40 (Gainey). You could tell he was telling his 3B "Hey man, it happens, you are one of the best in the game. Shake it off and keep your head up and lets get out of this." Had to take the time, THAT is leadership.

[@TravTheTiger]

@@Bravesfan12345 True, umps get a lot of blame, but at the same time Neal never touched or got in front of home plate, so the umps are wrong in this instance. At the very least, this rule should be reviewable by video replay.

Genuine question, if the batter decided to swing and made contact with the catcher would it be catchers interference or is it different when someone is stealing home. Because it looked to me like the pitcher delivered a pitch. He did not step off.

Ok you scored 21 in two games well we will just score 23 and send you packing! Milam has been amazing and it's a damn shame that Jay Johnson is suspended for tomorrow's game! Sad, ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE umpiring in this entire tournament, LSU will beat up on Tennessee tomorrow! Should be a great game if this was any indication of great baseball. Tigers, don't ever count them boys out.

[@jesusworshipclub1419]

[@davidcopeland2896]

There is many aspects of the rules in play, I am not a rules expert but would like to understand what was called and the rules to support the call. I get the catcher moved up into near home plate to receive the pitch when the runner stealing home, so that rule thou seems to be a bad rule I get it. but if it is called a pitch and the batter leaves the batters box which happens before the catcher moves forward isn't that strike 3 and end of inning. Also the runner never touched home plate even thou there was a long delay there was not start of play initiated on the first play they appealed threw to home and tagged home plate why wasn't the runner out?

[@dustincorkern2686]

I’d love to know if SC was trying to bait the catcher into a balk/interference call. Certainly seemed like it in real time. They had no chance to steal home on Herring and Neal legitimately.
