Crazy Play
Had a situation the other day in a FED game. BR hits grounder to SS and is running to first when firstbasemen pulls foot off first. My partner does not sell it and does not make it clear that the call is safe. The BR thinks he is out so he just rounds into fair territory. Well no one knows whats going on and by the time the BR gets to the pitchers mound, both the runner and the defense realize he was safe at first. So the BR runs directly from the mound to 2nd where is slides in safe. The defensive team goes nuts saying he gave himself up and/or he was out of baseline. We ruled he is safe at second under the same thought process as the "skunk in the outfield play."
Did I screw that up?
