Double Obstruction

Thanks Dakata.

As I mentioned, in the beginning the players did exactly that. Crashed at one and by the time they got up the stayed at 2B.

Once the coaches cottoned-on to how the umpires interpreted the rule, they then coach the players to be more assertive in the base running. Some still appeal for an extra base once all plays have ended and time is given however it is seldom given.

We live with the philosophy no soft runs no soft outs.
