[Jim Porter]

Rule on the following:

-R1, two outs.

-Pitcher balks and delivers

-R1 is off with the pitch, and is obstructed by F3

-Catcher interferes with the B1, but B1 smacks a single to right anyway

-R1 misses second base on his way to third (not caused by the obstruction)

-F9 bobbles the ball in right field.

-R1 rounds third and is heading home when, seeing F9 gain control of the ball, R1 retreats back to third base.

-B1 rounds second, and seeing R1 retreating back to third, he retreats back to second.

-F9 throws to F4 to try to put out the retreating B1, and B1 unintentionally interferes with the throw.

-The throw deflects off B1, skips by F4, bounces across the diamond, and dribbles through a hole in the fence and out of play.

-Once play resumes, the defense properly appeals R1's miss of second base.


Sort all that out, folks. Make the rulings, place the runners, how many score? Have fun!
