Sure you would... If the runner running home was the one who just hit the ball!

But in all seriousness, there are dozens and dozens of timing plays. Dholloway1962 touched on a few. Certain appeal plays are timing plays (such as not tagging up on a caught fly ball). Tag plays are usually timing plays.

Basically, if it wasn't a force out, it was a timing play.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
