On a Texas-leaguer, he informed the viewers that because the ball fell in front of the outfielder and behind the infielder, it would be ruled a "ground rule single." Also falling into the "ground rule single" category was a ground ball on which F3 threw home to retire the runner from 3B and the BR was safe at 1B.

Tim McCarver when back to HS? It's about time!
