Ok umpires, help a newbie rec umpire out.
I was working a travel scrimmage in our town last night, 12U, no idea whose rule set they use. It is usually a combo of USSSA and a local league rule set.
RH batter bunts and ball drops in front of home plate fair, batter's first step out of box contacts ball, other foot still in box. I call dead ball batter out, all runners return to last occupied base.
Correct? Coach of that team didn't think so!
