Darrell,

I don't know whether it is you not being clear or me just not getting the gist of your post. I understand the "first throw", it's just that it only applies to balls in the infield.

I've won bets from "experienced" umpires who insist that no matter what, the PU always has 3rd base. I usually collect in cases of adult beverages
