OK, so here we go:

"With the bases loaded,R1,R2,R3 and no outs, the batter, B4 hits a ground ball to the shortstop. In each situation the throw from the short stop goes to the catcher.

"Situation 1). The throw to the catcher forces R1 the first out. The catcher then throws the ball to first base. The throw hits B4 running outside the running lane. What is your ruling and where do you place the runners?

"Situation 2). R1 is safe at home, the catcher then throws to first base and the the throw is interfered with by B4 running outside the running lane. What is your ruling and where do you place the runners?

"Situation 3). R1 is out at the plate. The catchers throw to first base sails into short right field. The right fielder picks up the ball and throws to the plate to retire R2, who is attempting to score from second base on the over throw at first base. The plate umpire ruled the batter runner interfered with the throw from the catcher. Is this a triple play? Who is out? Where do we place runners?"
