Another question for the scorekeepers out there. We've all seen this one many times but I want to be sure since it was a state tournament. It happened several times on both sides throughout pool and bracket play.
Batter hits clean line drive through the infield slot, one hopper to RF who fields it cleanly and does three arm pumps before finding and throwing to the cutoff waving hands. Batter-runners and runners don't stop and get a run or two and extra bases, and batter holds up on third base. Batter's parents say "Suzy just hit a triple." I gave Suzy a single and the appropriate RBI and called the extra bases resulting from the RF's mental error DEFENSIVE INDIFFERENCE.
How do you score it?
Thanks again all.
