Josh, what is the norm on these type of descisions? Is there a history of overturns in these senario's?

Not sure about the history. The Sun Belt has a policy concerning ejections, which call for an immediate one-game suspension. (I believe the SEC requires three ejections before a suspension.) If appeals aren't made within 24 hours then the coach must sit out the next game. He appealed by 6:30 p.m. today and is now just waiting to hear a response.
I got to see the video and listen to the audio of what resulted in the ejection. Robe never cursed or made contact with the umps from what I saw. (In fact, one ump put his hands on Robe, and he told him to get his hands off him.) The umps couldn't handle the fact that Robe called the guys out for missing the call. Mistakes are going to happen, but no excuses for all four umps to miss that play.
I didn't see the webcast, I just heard jays call of the play via radio. Does the replay show safe or out? Or u couldn't tell?
