one out, runner at 3b, batter hits deep sac fly to right field.
runner tags up and scores.
opposing coach appeals saying runner left early on tag up.
field ump then calls her out.
questions:
1. how is this scored? is it still a sac fly? or just a standard fly out. and is the runner awarded an error for leaving early? or is she just simply out on the basepaths?
2. why does this HAVE to be an appeal play? why cant the field ump just call the runner out in real time?
thanks.
