Patrick,

Welcome to the board

I think if you re-read my originial post, you will see that
I stated that coach physically turns BR around and pushes
her towards 1B. Granted, she still walked towards 1B, but
it was through 3rd base coaches "little nudge"...

I made an out call, but am wondering if that was correct due
to ASA's definition of a Batter- {in this case Bratter-runner}
runner. By responses, I notice that several of you see what I
am getting at. Still looking myself. I did not get any hastle
with call, butttt.....
