Hmmmmmmmmm. Everybody seems to have disappeared. Perhaps it's all those dimpled ballots.
Take a one-question FED test.
R1 is stealing. B1 strikes out swinging and falls forward into the catcher's throwing lane, though he does not step out of the box. F2's throw is not in time to nab R1. The umpire judges the batter did hinder the catcher somewhat, but he believes R1 would have made the base even without the interference. The umpire should:
a. return R1 to first.
b. call out R1.
c. leave R1 at second only if he thinks the hindrance was accidental.
d. leave R1 at second because he had the base stolen, regardless.
No fair looking it up in the book.
