NFHS Junior Varsity Game
SITUATION #1
Top of 7th with 2 outs and home team leading by 1 run. Tie run on 2nd base. Batter hits grounder toward short who comes in to make the play. As she is coming in, right about where the baseline is from 2nd to 3rd, the short stop cuts off the running lane causing the runner and herself to dance alittle. A play could have been made to throw out the batter runner at first.
Your thoughts:
1) interference on runner, ball dead, game over.
2) obstruction on short stop, delayed dead ball and protect runner to whatever you feel, most likely 3rd.
3) just a tangle up and neither of the above. Let play continue and call nothing.
SITUATION #2
As batter runner runs to first on a live batted ball, the coach yells to continue to second and pats her on the back on the way by. Any call to make here.
Thanks for your input....Bob 13. By the way, partner called #1 in situation #1. I felt it was the right call. Luckily we got outta there without any problem.
