That’s what I thought too. I totally understand if he’s hanging out over the plate a la Julien. But being in the box and getting hit in the box, it shouldn’t matter if he moves into or away from the ball if the ball hits him in the box.
OT: Boogs vs Florida in the Gainesville not men's softball Super Regional

We were always told you had to make some movement, which usually just involved turning into it. I’ve never read a rule book, but I do remember it coming up that you had to move at least a little, even if the movement wasn’t to get out of the way

What if he didn’t move and it hit him in the face. Would the ump have the same ruling?
Probably not. Judgment call, so I would think he would give the near death experience the benefit of the doubt on that one

I miss the days when you could just shit on guys that you thought were leaning in to pitches and just move on, rather than create new judgement calls that possibly take away bases from guys that legitimately got beaned.
It happened to us earlier in the year. I think it was Holland that got hit then too. If memory serves me, the announcers explained that it was new rule and a point of emphasis for safety.
Game three for the Omaha marbles starts at 7:00 CDT tonight. Andrew Mitchell vs Jack Leftwich.
I don’t feel very confident about it
Glad today’s game will allow the church goers to actually watch. May watch all 9 tonight. Let’s go BUTCH
ready gang. These last two days have sort of rekindled my previous love for baseball. Not really, but I did used to watch the braves obsessively
Just saw a tweet that Butch reached out to Sonny for advice before the game today
Calling it now. Julien with a bunt grand slam.
Excited to see our leadoff walk that we try to stretch into a triple
You guys will be glad to know that I plan on going to BWW tonight and getting tanked whilst I keep you updated on the score...
I got you, bruh. Might be a little late getting started. Just got home and need to shower and such..
I know exactly what you mean by such. I usually and such each morning before work so I go in with a smile.
I may be gay but I’m no nerd.
damn. Still a good inning though and they're making good contact on this guy the second time around
It’s time for Wright to start reciting literature from porn maggys behind the plate. Throw the hitters off from UF. Then Rick Vaughn comes in Bot 9th to seal the deal.
