IRISHMAFIA Mark T. DeNucci, Sr. wroteSeth: Last week, in a boys' H.S. varsity game I saw Team H's F2 make the most dumbest play I had ever seen a H.S. player make. I am in the C, runner on 2nd with zero outs and a 3-1 count on the batter. Next pitch is ball 4, the B/R takes off for 1st, while F2 immediately turns around and starts complaining to my partner (the PU) about the pitch being called ball 4. Guess where the runners were by the time F2's coach reminded him that the ball was still live? You guessed it, 2nd and 3rd. Would you believe that Team V did not score that inning after that bonehead play by H's F2. MTD, Sr. That must have been because the new catcher did a great job of holding them and calling a good game.

Skahtboi ronald wroteAlright, how do you guys quote someone using the gray shaded box? Thanks. There are two ways. You can write the code, which takes a while, or, you can hit the button that says "quote" in the lower right hand corner of this, or any post.

vcblue ChampaignBlue wroteI always thought it was to keep from being hit by a fair batted ball which will result in an out. Yes that is correct going from 3rd to home, but you come back to 3rd in fair so the catcher does not have a straight shot to the bag or possibly even getting hit by the ball ensuring a safe return.
