If the third baseman remained on the field because he knew there were only two outs and he was heads up enough as a 10 year old to realize how he could get the runner out, then it seems he was the person most adversely affected by the ruling. Gee, kid, that was heads up and all and pretty impressive that you were the only one on the field who knew what was going on and showed a good knowledge of the rules, but we don't want to hurt anyone's feelings and all. I remember playing Little League when I was 10. I remember keeping track of my batting average and spent hours fielding a tennis ball rebounding from a brick wall. I remember reading the rulebook cover to cover then too. Don't assume that every 10 year old is just in it for the snow-cone.
