I play/coach in a rec softball league here in Wilmington, NC. We are under ASA rules and I have a question regarding interference in a game last night.
Situation: Runner on 2nd, 0 outs. Batter hit ball to shortstop and runner ran into shortstop on way to 3rd, resulting in runners on 1st and 3rd. Base umpire (correctly) called baserunner interference, but I'm not sure if his ruling was correct. He called the batter/runner out at first base, but allowed the runner on 2nd to advance to 3rd on the play. What is the correct ruling in this case? I would think that the runner would have to return to 2nd...
Also, where could I pick up a copy of the ASA rules? I've been searching the 'net with little success. Thanks,
Spike S.
