It is my understanding that the only outs that could be reversed on an uncalled IFF are force outs. If runners were off bases at the time they were tagged out, those outs would stand. And yes, the batter would be retroactively called out.
Remember the purpose of the rule is to prevent an easy...
Although the rules or supplements to do spell it out this way, the best way to think about it is that an uncaught third strike has the same "status" as a fair batted ball. This is the case where the fielder has the right of way, and INT is ruled; just as it would be on a runner between the other...
This is the most difficult call in SB. As stated, the batter is out if at least one foot is completely outside the chalk of the batter's box at the time the ball was struck. Yes, it is the one of plate umpire's primary responsibilities, but there is the question of priorities. The #1 priority is...
If it is truly 10 feet "long", then how is it possible to have an interpretation that would be in direct contradiction of a rule?
IMO, this is a candidate for expert editorial review and perhaps the word "long" would be changed to "back" or "deep".
Or the diagram would actually show a fourth line.
In my copy of the ASA Rule Book, the catcher's box is not described as a rectangle.
There are only three lines drawn that extend from the back lines and the outside lines of the batter's boxes. There is no fourth line; there is no "front line". Or if there is, it is undocumented.
The only...
The catcher's box has no frontal boundary. It is only catcher obstruction if she hinders the batter's attempt to hit the pitch.
I see no penalty in the OP
Add one thing based on the title of the thread. This has nothing to do with whom may, or may not, be responsible for the injury. Could be an injury to a defensive player "caused" by an offensive player. Friendly fire also applies.
Guidance is all we get, nothing hard and fast or black and white.
Loss of consciousness, is one of the obvious signs, compound fractures, head/neck/back injuries, etc.
There is a difference between "being hurt bad" versus "it just hurts bad".
Unfortunately when a young girl twists a knee and is...
Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! If it appears that immediate medical attention is needed, as in this case, umpire kills the play and awards bases that would have been reached. ASA 10.4.G
Fair, but let's tighten it up some. It is "turned on again" based on the pitcher ceasing to make a play, not when the runner(s) stop. As stated previously, runners may in in motion when the LBR goes into effect.
And yes, it can be on then off, then on, then off, etc.
Short version,
At the moment that F3 achieves possession/control of the ball in the circle and is not in the act of making a play:
a.) If the runner is running, she may continue to run as far as she wants, may stop once, and then "immediately" advance to the next base or retreat to the previous...
Ken, do you remember Vipin Kumar on the original FPF? He brought it up back then, and his daughter Kirin, went to GA Tech and used it there, ok, not in WCWS.
That being said, how much bunting at all do we see in WCWS?
Disagree. It is Unsporting Conduct for a coach to instruct players to deliberately violate rules.
In this case, coach put his own team at a disadvantage knowing the likelihood of having IP's called against his own team.
I'm trying for you, partner...
R1 on 3B, R2 on 2B. F5 playing up. F6 shaded towards 2B.
LH Slapper hits a flair over F5 along the foul line, just fair, just beyond the edge of the grass.
Nobody has a chance of catching this fly ball.
R1 gets tangled up with F5, F2 gets tangled up with F6...
