Game ending appeal play!
This is from illinoishighschoolsports.com Can anyone give a ruling here.
Bottom of the 7th...0 - 0 tie..two out..runner on 2nd.
Slow roller to short..short scoops and throws to first...the base umpire calls the runner out. The team leaves the field, as the team is leaving the field, the runner crosses the plate.
The Home team appeals to the home plate umpire to rule if the 1st baseman pulled her foot. The Home Plate umpire, overturns the out call and allows the run to score. Game over.
I say the runner should have to go back to 3rd. Anyone disagree?
