Call time. Eject the coach and the runners for unsporting conduct. Put a sub in for the runner who was formerly R1 and put him back on 2B, score the one who was R2, and leave the BR on 1B (they all reached base legitimately).
Somebody here will want some outs called, but the defense earned none and the offensive cheating prevented none.
Next batter.  |
Your theory is flawed. Shame on the umpire (PU or BU) who is so inattentive he doesn't know the situation when there is a short stoppage in play. Keep your head in the game next time.
