A interesting play happened in the Dodger game today here's the play.
Kiké Hernandez hit a foul pop and first baseman Buster Posey made a juggling catch with his back to the infield. Utley tagged and scored, and although it appeared that he left third base before Posey secured the ball, the Giants’ appeal was met with a safe call from umpire Bill Miller. The way Rick Monday explained it as you can tag up as soon as the ball touches a glove. He said the rule was changed many years ago to stop players from bobbling the ball on purpose to get a unfair advantage kinda like the infield fly rule.
What's the fastpitch rule for this play ?
Thx Larry
