Sit. 1: Runner on 2nd. Pitcher attempts pickoff throw to SS. Can the SS block the base with his leg or any other part of his body WITHOUT the ball to prevent the runner from getting back to the bag? If not, is there a penalty?
Sit. 2: 1 out. Runner on 1st attempts to steal. Batter interferes with catcher's throw. Is this immediate dead ball? Is the batter out and runner goes back to 1st, or is the runner ruled out?
