Ok...I have two rules questions.
1) USA RULES. Pitcher is getting hit pretty good, and one of the parents comments to the catcher to go out and talk to her. She does. The umpire tells the HC that it's considered an official visit. I didn't get how/why but I'm curious about it.
2) Triple Crown Rules: Runner on 2nd....batter hits ball towards 3rd base, it deflects off 3rds glove hits the runner on the foot as the SS was trying to back up the 3rd base. FU calls the runner out for interference.....I was under the impression that once it deflected off the glove and the runner behind the fielder it couldn't be interference?
What do my boys/girls in blue have to say?
Thanks
Dave
