Cool The count so far...

Remember, the ball is DEAD and our runner is stuck between 2nd and 1st. There are two options on the subject play:
  1. The runner stops retreating to 1st, and goes back to 2nd to correct his miss before attempting to tag up at 1st and take his 2 base award
  2. The runner continues retreating to 1st, tags up and touches 2nd on his way to 3rd on the award.
The counting currently stands as follows:
Option 1Option 2
greymuleRich Fronheiser
mickGarthB
SniveÂ*
LDUB hasn't committed either way on the dead ball situation, but believes option 2 would be legal during a live ball.

I'm pretty sure that's the current state of play. I will post the relevant arguments and citations shortly.

Cheers
