The batter is given the value of the hit as I recall............

since the leaving early penalty did not effect (or should that be affect) the outcome of the play..........there would be no penalty.........

If however.........the runner leaving early from 1st could have easily made it to 3rd........even without leaving early............after the BR singles..........he gets moved back to 2nd........

There lies the penalty............

Maybe Bob (or another LL umpire) could explain the "Poof" rule to us.........

This is where a runner from third who leaves early goes........."POOF" and cannot score........
