I know on a BI on a pitch where R3 is stealing it would be R3 that is called out in this situation, however, I had a passed ball where the interference took place.
I called R3 out because R3 was stealing home with less then 2 outs. Was I correct or should I have called batter out and returned the runners? Of course no one argued the call because none of the coaches know any of the rules.  |
R3 out, BR still at the plate, and R2 returned to second.
With two outs, the batter is out on an attempted steal of home. With less than two outs, R3 is out.
