    Runner hit by batted ball

    I’m glad I found this website, thanks for everyone responding. I was upset about that call Sunday so I apologize to everyone I may of offended. It’s just a game, no reason for me to act like that. I still think in that situation that was the wrong call in that situation, the fielders are pretty...

    Runner hit by batted ball

    Marriad, I’m glad to know there are umpires who think about it and make the right call. It can’t just be black and white, if it passes a fielder no where near the ball that shouldn’t matter. I’m sure that wasn’t the intention when they wrote the rule

    Runner hit by batted ball

    My last post, I promise. Like Marriad said there will never be an out in fastpitch for a batter being hit by batted ball. Every third baseman and first baseman I’ve seen play even or in front of the bag. Is that right?

    Runner hit by batted ball

    Thanks Marriad. I know the call was wrong. There was no fielder interference. Not everything is black and white and requires some sort of umpire judgement. You’re right, the umpire didn’t know the rule correctly.

    Runner hit by batted ball

    The runner was running to second base got hit with a batted ball. She wasn’t close to either the 1st baseman or the second baseman who was breaking to second to cover the steal. Home plate umpire called her out. The base umpire who was behind ss reversed the call. Because he said the first...

    Runner hit by batted ball

    Thank you, most of these replies are probably from umpires who have nothing better to do. It was the wrong call, I only wanted clarification and people got defensive ����.

    Runner hit by batted ball

    You sound like a complete idiot. That’s the wrong call. Maybe it’s more of a judgement call than I thought. But I have never seen a runner not called out after being directly hit with a batted ball. Not in baseball, not in slo pitch softball and not in teenage fast pitch.

    Runner hit by batted ball

    That’s basically the same thing that happened. The runner was hit while running to 2nd. She didn’t make an attempt to get out of the way. She wasn’t looking at the ball and I know she didn’t run into it intentionally but she should be out. Our first baseman who was I guess standing a little in...

    Runner hit by batted ball

    What’s to stop my team from purposely running into a ground ball to redirect its path. I know it’s a rule, trust me I’ve been looking at it all day. I’m just saying and it’s my opinion that’s a stupid rule. Thanks everyone for the replies

    YouTube with actual footage of baseball games isn’t reliable?

    Runner hit by batted ball

    The rule you just posted says if a ball strikes a runner before a fielder touches it they are out. Doesn’t say anything about going past a fielder 15 feet away

    Runner hit by batted ball

    The softball rule is stupid, should be changed. Girls play extremely close to home plate while fielding. So, every time a runner is hit with a batted ball they’ll be safe and get extra bases because the ball path is redirected.
