1/10 for A at the 50. A22 runs to the B5 where he fumbles. The ball rolls into B's end zone and almost comes to rest. B33 bats the ball out of the end zone to the B3 where B44 falls on the ball. Don't ask me why B33 batted the ball...lol
Interesting play!
Hopefully, one of you remembered to drop a beanbag on the five yard line.
Why? Because the five yard line is the end of the run.
This play is a running play!
Why? Remember, a run ends where a runner loses possession but the related running play continues until the ball becomes dead or some player again gets possession. (See rule 10-6)
Since the play is a running play, the penalty (Illegal Bating - 15 yards) is enforced from the end of the run.
And, as the end of the run is the B5, only half the distance may be enforced.
Result of the play: 1st and goal for A on the B 2.5 yard line.

Did you enforce it correctly biglaz?
