Wait a minute, I think I see the problem here.
Dan, I hate to break this to you, but as I said before, unless Little League is specified, we are talking big people baseball on this forum. You probably work outside the bases in the outfield when working the bases in your LL games, correct?
If this is the case, you are behind the fielders, so if you get hit with the ball, it remains alive, as it has passed a fielder other than the pitcher. If you work
inside the diamond and get hit, the ball is dead, the batter gets 1st base, and any forced runners advance.
