    He touched the floor for about 3 seconds after catching it and keeping hold of it. I don't see how we can argue about that considering the LBWs we got away with.

    Two rights don't make a wrong. The ball wasn't under control, and he fell with the ball face down on the floor.

    I'm with Roundsman on this

    He dropped it. He actually landed on the ball that was on the gound.

    However, I am fantastically biased.

    I didn't see it that way. I'd have to see a replay as I thought he caught it and then slid his hands along the floor.

    I always thought if the ball touched the ground it wasn't a catch

    And it slid along the ground for 3 feet.

    After he caught it tho. It's not what I consider was a dropped catch.

    The umpire thought the same as you

    And that's all that really matters

    No idea. Definitely not at work, though. Honest.

    Good catch.

    I'd have given it, and I'm biased.
