??? I'm going off of what you said earlier, that if a ball hits the dirt in front of the plate it's a WP? Ha! Now I'm not so confident
I ran into a bit of this the other night; DD's team was scrimmaging a much weaker opponent (actually registered as a class below DD's team). DD's team was hitting hard grounders that the ss couldn't really handle. They would get past her, and then the outfield wouldn't be prepared to field and throw quickly, resulting in the batter taking 2nd base. How to score that? A single? A double? A ROE, since an equally classed team would make the 6-3? Plus, since it was a scrimmage, a dad was the plate umpire and his daughter was pitching! He was calling a pretty tight zone - I thought his DD was going to kill him at one point. I've experienced that! When my DH is plate umpiring our DD in a scrimmage the ride home is silence punctuated by outbursts of fury. It's super fun - ha ha.
