Interesting situtation...opinions please.
Bases loaded with one out. Batter hits a long fly ball to left field. The batted ball deflects off of the left fielders glove and goes over the fence in fair territory. Runner on 1st base is holding to tag up. Batter/runner passes the runner at 1st base. What do you rule? Does it matter if the b/r passes the runner at 1st base before the ball becomes dead? Also, what would the result be if there were two outs? Your thoughts and opinions would be appreciated.
