Got a question on the IP-rule , ISF-rules:
IP goes past the catcher. R1 goes to 2nd and tries for 3rd base, but is thrown out there by the catcher.
Do we have an out or is R1 sended back to 2nd base ?
----------------------------------------------------
Any infraction of Sections 1-8 is an Illegal Pitch.
1. The umpire shall give a delayed dead ball signal.
2. If the illegal pitch is not hit
(a) An extra ball is awarded to the batter (first base if ball four), and
(b) Runners are advanced one base.
EXCEPTION: If a runner legally advances on the illegal pitch (passed ball or wild throw by the catcher), any
extra bases obtained may be retained.

No option in ISF on IP. Runner is out and a ball on the batter.
