That said, the umpire should not have called the runner out unless the defense appealed the miss.
You have to pass a runner physically, not virtually. 7.12.

You mean a fan asked a question which was actually covered in the rule book????
After reading your most recent article, I assumed that every qustion would require several sources to find the correct response.
In your article, you say members of the Official Forum berate coaches who ask stupid questions. What is wrong with that?
1. Every coach question is always a simple question that could be learned by reading the rule book. In a previous post, I cited about 7 questions from eteamz, and all were simple questions.
2. Why is a coach even posting a question on the Official Forum. Officiating.com says that the Official Forum is "the best discussion forum for officials on the net!" It does not say it is a place for coaches to come and ask questions.
Why are you trying to turn this in to etemaz?
