sorry, i'm in my office and i don't carry my books with me at all times. also can't access mlb.com for the rules.

how about the following...

R2, 3-2 count, ball 4 wild pitch, BR goes to first, R2 goes to 3rd.

or

R2, 3-2 count, strike 3 wild pitch,BR goes to first, R2 goes to 3rd.

does a dropped 3rd strike wild pitch qualify as "or otherwise"?



The ball is dead, and each runner shall advance one base without liability to be put out, unless the batter reaches first on a hit, an error, a base on balls, a hit batter, or otherwise, and all other runners advance at least one base, in which case the play proceeds without reference to the balk.
