What is that? Getting spit or resin on the fingers and not wiping it off?
As it was explained on the radio broadcast today, she goes from the rosin bag to her pant leg, then to her wristband. Sometimes she skips the pant leg and goes directly to the wristband, which is supposed to be ok. The umps incorrectly applied the rule and said it did not count. Got an illegal pitch for a foreign substance, then a second. The second illegal pitch with a substance is an ejection.
The umps weren't going to eject her, but the Hawaii coach pulled out his pre-highlighted rule book. Sounded like a set-up with umps that only call games in Hawaii, based on the way it was described on the radio.
Are the umps calling wild pitches? Because Sprang has thrown 3 in the last 2 innings. The same number that Arnold and Moss have combined to throw in 160 innings this year.
