One out. R3, R2. 3-2 on the batter. Runners off with the pitch. Checked swing, ball gets past F2, bounces away. "TIME! Did she go?" "No." "Ball four, take your base." R3 and R2 had crossed the plate while the defense was chasing down the ball. You've called time. Runners may not advance on a dead ball, unless forced or bases are awarded. How do you explain to the offensive coach that R3 and R2 must return to their bases?
