Well coach, it's like this. When the bases are loaded there is a force play at every base and when your runners don't touch the base to which they are forced they are liable to be called out on appeal and when there are two outs a force play ends the inning and no runs score. Now if your runners could touch the base to which they are forced we would not be having this discussion and in this situation they are under no time pressure to do so so I don't really understand it either.
