Several years back doing a high school game, bases loaded 2 outs. Batters swings and misses, ball gets past catcher. Batter just starts walking toward dugout while runners are all advancing. Catcher retrieves ball and overthrows 1st into right field. Right field retrieves ball and overthrows 1st back to catcher. Meanwhile all the runners have scored and now the batter finally gets the hint maybe she should run to 1st. Catcher finally makes a decent throw and barely retires the batter on a banger at 1st. Then had to explain to the coach no runs scored.
