I love it...this is almost like talking to a coach right on the field...
Where was the runner?
I don't recall.
Has she crossed home yet?
No.
But I thought you said you didn't recall where she was!
I wasn't asking because it had anything to do with a force out. It has everything to do about the run scoring or not. If she had crossed the plate before the act of interference, then the run would score. If not, then she goes back to third.
If you had asked ''Had the runner crossed home yet?" instead of ''Where was the runner?'', you would've gotten a quicker, more accurate response. Also, if your original post had said ''if runner had crossed home, answer is A'' and ''if runner had not crossed home, answer is B,'' then I would've gotten a quicker, more accurate response. So if we want to assess how this became harder than it needed to be, I would start there. But on a serious note, I do appreciate the explanation. I'm eager to learn and should know the rules better than I do. I was not coaching, fwiw. Just watching from the stands.
