What is the definition of a Force ? Is the BR forced to go to 1B by definition ? I agree with your call with using the whole base with a ball from foul territory. What I am looking for is something that I have seen and listened to many people and Umpires that have many interpretations of what is a force ? Please no hate mail just help...
