21st Inn - Passing Runner - Simliar

Boston 2005 - Women's Play Off Game
4hr 52mins - 21st Inns - Btm 7th - Score 1-1
Runners on 2nd & 3rd
Batter hits Home Run
16 screaming females rush across to BR from the Dugout
Runners whilst half way down the baseline towards respective bases launch themselves towards the crasy scene going on between home & 1st.

3 Umpires make towards the exit 'in a hurry' past the visiting coach who just winks at the home plate umpire!

To me that's a very wise and sportmanlike gesture from the coach, and 1 very relieved BU who just didn't want to make the call.

Same as this case ... Let it Be!!
