I saw this on another board (Troll Central ) and thought I'd bring it over here to see how you guys would handle. it. It's a pretty ugly situation and absolutely a no win for the PU. He messed up, bad.
Anyway, here's what was on the message board.
-------------------------------------------------------
Last night I received a call from a coach of a team we service in our association. He played a district game at another school serviced by a different association. His team lost 1-0. Anyway he asked me about a play that happened in the 5th inning. He had runners on 1st and 2nd, 2 outs 3-2 count on batter, everyone is running on the pitch. The pitch ball is thrown in the dirt, the batter swings and misses, but takes off running to 1st base, the umpire says strike 3, batter out now the catcher rolls the ball back to the pitching circle, meanwhile the runners are still running, the umpire stops play. Of course the coach comes out and asked the umpire about the ball in the dirt and the umpire said he was sorry but by him saying the batter was out, it effectively killed the play ....anyway the coach was not happy but the play stood. Any comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Now, I'm thinking I can use rule 10.2.3.m and place the girl on 1st. It ain't gonna be good, but it's the best you can get on something like this, I think.
What do ya'll think?
