"As for debating the pro's and con's of who gets the benefit of a perceived tie in a game for 6-8 year olds, I'm afraid I simply can't imagine the relevance. Maybe someone else can enlighten us both."

I agree with you Warren however, if we take the oppurtunity to educate the 6-8 yr old parents now, mabey, just mabey, they wont be yelling the same thing when the players are 15-16.

Skip, the rules of Baseball do NOT allow for ties. The runner either beats the ball to the bag or they don't. Most of the time, the official makes their decision based on this criteria alone.

Now, as Warren has already explained, officials also take into consideration other things that are used in their decisions.
