since stealing is allowed now in SP,I have a question about a situation that,if I don't ask about it,will come up.
Let's say you have a runner on 1st,the ball is pitched and it hits the batter and skips away from the catcher. Is it a dead ball and you return the runner to 1st or do you let it go? If you let it go,is there a penalty for the batter not getting out of the way?
While I'm at it....I had a situation the other night where there was a runner on 1st adn the ball was pitched to the batter. It was going to hit him so he caught it. I had a dead ball batter was out for interfering with a live ball. My question is if there are NO runners on and the batter catches the ball,is it an out also??
