Tripple Play STOPPED
Please someone settle this argument.
It's the top of the 6th, they have no out's runners at 1st and 2nd and I am playing short stop. the ball is hit low and hard. I could of dived to catch it, but i saw at least a double play, the ball bounced at my feet.
I intended to tag the runner from 2nd, step on the 2nd base then throw to 1st. TRIPPLE PLAY. but as I tagged the runner, he pushed my glove away knocking the ball out of my hand. He then deliberatly ran and stood between me and the ball, he then ran to 3rd. The umpire said that i did not have control of the ball.
But i did. surly he could not knocked it out of my hand delibratly and get away with that.
I though he should of been out the umpire should of given the runner out from 1st to 2nd as i would of easily got that out.
Any comments ??
