I got a bit lost in the posts after this one, but does this say you kill a play when an obstructed runner is safe?
If so. no way.
Also, there still was OBS even if no award, a point I tried to make earlier.
Another thing, why do we get wrapped up in hme plate being any different than any other base for tags, OBS, INT, etc. ?
