Tournament Update.
This weekend MTD, Jr. and I umpired in the ASA-Ohio Girls' 12U State Championships. We had the exact same scenario Saturday morning in Pool Play. Again, Junior was on the Plate. Exact same play as the OP. I yelled TIME!! THAT'S INTERFERENCE, RUNNER OUT! Except, that F4 still managed to field the ball and throw the B/R out at 1B. Instinct, kicked in and I called the B/R for an inning ending DP and no one questioned the call, . The offensive team was using the 1B dugout and even their parents were telling me that was an easy way to end the inning.
MTD, Sr.
