Bases loaded. Inside the park apparent home run. Everyone scores, no one touches home. Catcher gets the ball, appeals R1 missing home, appeals R2 missing home, appeals R3 missing home.
ANYTHING is possible...
I had a UATP as pitcher once in rec softball. Bases loaded, ball is dribbled foul up the first base line. Batter took 4 or 5 steps, and seeing it foul turns around walking toward the batters box. Ball rolls fair, I pick it up and tag BR (dumb move, but I was just surprised the ball came back and BR was standing right there.). I look up and R1 (R3 in softball) is trying to score, and I beat him home (remember, this is college rec softball - throwing to my catcher was NOT an option!). For some reason, R2 has rounded third and is halfway to his dugout when I make the 2nd out - so I go tag her.
