I agree, but it's not a game winning hit, until all the runners touche the next base. If this were a MLB game you would likely call abandonement because that's the rule, but then again, you would not have to becaue the runners would advance to the next base so it would not be an issue.
You can say that an MLB player would do what they need to but then I give you Fernando Tatis, Ruben Rivera amongst others. How many times have players tossed a ball into the stands and not even know the outs? So I suspect an MLB player not getting to the next base would not be out of the question.
Ok, then a ML ump should call a runner out for abandonement, per rule. But an American Legion ump should go home in this sitch.
