"So F1 holds on to ball."

And:

"the PU killed the play and called the B-R out for violation of the LBR!"


There is no trickery here, no HTBT; just a clear rules violation that one umpire saw - and called.

The question for you is:

Given that this is a very obscure rule that no one will know about nor understand,

Given the game situation, and that this call ends the game with the home team having the tying run on 3B,

Given that you are in for one hell of an explanation to a set of very irate coaches and players,

Given that the coaches are not going to believe you and assume that you made a very dumb mistake,

Given that protests are not allowed,

Given that you have to find a way off the field through a hostile crowd,

Given that you are guaranteed a very bad rating,

Then:

Would you have made that call?
