This Umpire Should Be Thrown In Prison After Calling Timeout Mid-Pitch And Stealing A Walk-Off Homer From ECU

It's about time NCAA baseball umpires got involved in the season! This guy for sure wanted to get involved in the action and boy did he ever. ECU was tied with Bryant 3-3 in the ninth when Justin Wilcoxen turned on one and smoked it to right for a walk-off solo shot. ECU comes on the field to celebrate, they get their first win of the season, the boys are partying. But then you see the umpires get together to chat. It was close to the line so maybe it was foul? WRONG. The first base umpire had granted the first baseman time just as the pitch was being thrown. Only the first baseman and umpire reacted to it. Watch everyone else, the pitcher throws it, the hitter is ready to go, home plate umpire goes through with it, no one else reacts. Why is that umpire granting the defender time? Just because it's requested doesn't mean you have to grant it. There is 0 reason to grant time that late. So after the ECU manger gets tossed the game goes on and ECU ends up losing in extra innings, 5-4. 

The only proper punishment is prison. Send him to jail. You can't be deciding games because a first baseman requested time. What a garbage call by this first base umpire.
