Athens Vets protest game over umpire coin toss
The Athens Vets protest Sunday's game with Buchtel citing an umpire coin toss after a fair ball call. The dispute arose on a fourth inning play when Charley Gall’s trickler down the third base line was ruled fair, with Buchtel alleging the ball hit the plate first. Buchtel later reportedly admitted the ball was fair, yet the umpire still tossed a coin to decide.
