Jim, I will add an exception that is not taught that happened to me once. BU had gone out, the ball fell uncaught, and BR got caught in rundown between first and second.

Well the BU, a rookie, came through and stepped in beautifully on the first base side of the rundown while he was en route back toward the plate. With the play moving away from him he called for his responsibility at first. Let me tell ya, the rook did great and looked good---and I was happy to see him. Weird happening, but he stepped in and made the exception to the rule payoff. Job well done by a rookie (who ultimately moved up quickly).

That is an excellent addition, Steve. Thanks.
