So we had a girl hosed at home plate. She retreated back to 3rd which was occupied by a trailing baserunner. As she was retreating my catcher dove for her and tagged her before she made it back to 3rd. The trailing runner stayed on 3rd base momentarily during the play and retreated back to second after the diving tag and she realized there were two of them on the same base. Confusion ensued. It was a very close play. Other teams coach argued that she made it back to 3rd before the tag and stated she would be safe and both of them could occupy 3rd base and as long as the trialing runner didn't pass her Wouldn't she be out anyways even if she made it back to 3rd? If you tag the one of the girls that are both occupying a base is she out? I was trying to find it in the NSA rulebook cannot find anything in there regarding two baserunners occupying one base. I have heard in baseball you have to tag the trailing runner because they are by rule "in jeopardy" not the lead runner. Hopefully this is clear. I will try to post a video of the play. What is the CALL?
