Its the Balks? 20 second Rule? Or Batter must stay in the box. I have seen Batters right or left foot on the line on the batters box.What is the penalty for that? I want see that rule enforced more often those lines are placed there for a reason.And every 6th inning begins ground crew chalks up new batters box line as they rake the field. Players just erase that line when they step up to plate.Look here I wanna see umps enforce this rule! |

I hate when they turn a double play and don't touch second. The players see it..the umps see it..the fans see it. It's not an out if they don't touch the damn base. |

Yeah the umps also see hitters not staying in the box too. Look the NCAA refs are finaly telling coaches dont walk on the court. A Year ago you see coaches stepping on the line on the court when game is playing. They have gave coaches techincal fouls when they step on the court. And umps need to enforce the double play legaly and batters must be in the box completely not on the line. |

Agreed with you there. They also do it a lot at first base. |

totally agree with you on that one. I can't tell you how many times I have seen a ball that was clearly a strike called a ball. I also would like the umps to enforce it both sides. (IE if the Sox are up @ bat, and Manny or Ortiz gets called for a strike, and then when the sides change, the same pitch should be called a strike as well) I hope you understand what I meant |

More consistent strikezones, double plays in which the base is actually touched, timer on pitchers (Kei Igawa for example takes 30+ seconds between every pitch), oh, and umpires should stop thinking they're the bomb when fighting with managers. |

I see what you mean there.First baseman catch the ball and his foot leaves too quickly off the base. Sorry his foot must be on base and ball in mitt at least 1 full second or hes safe. |
