Sports Illustrated Kids June

It's still been a busy week around here and I'm actually finishing up the newest Sports Illustrated Kids "What's The Call" illustrations for a deadline tomorrow morning.

But, I figured I could tear myself away from the drawing board for a few minutes and show off a few of the previous SIK illustrations and try and get a bit more caught up on showing these things off.

These illustrations come from the June issue and the idea is that you're the official referee on the field and something happens. It's always a little odd so it's up to you to make the right call.

Here we go:

1. An NBA basketball player goes up for a layup and the defender smacks the player on his right hand, which is still on the ball. Is this a foul?

2. In a Major League Baseball game, a batter rips a line drive that hits an umpire in the foot and then is caught by a fielder before it touches the ground. Is the batter out?

3. A hockey player cuts toward the goal and sees a pass coming his way, but he slips and falls on top of the puck, and then slides through the crease, past the goalie, with the puck still under him. Is this a goal?


So, you're the official on the field. It's up to you.
