Mike hit it on the head.
Most answers given kept referring to a play being made.
Remember, the pitcher is the only one that could make a
play and release the runner from the LBR. She stood
motionless. I had never seen this play before but have
seen the chasing ball trick trying to get the runner off
far enough to be thrown out. The couple of times I had
seen it, pitcher turn around like she was looking for the
ball.
Sure there was deception, but nothing illegal.
Call on the field was LBR. They allowed the runner a little longer than I think I would have. 1001-02 is about all
she would have gotten from me.
