Had this situation a couple of days ago. Bases loaded. 1 out. Batter hits a fairly deep fly ball to left center that is going to be trouble in the wind. I was in C watching for the catch. Ball drops to the ground and I start looking for the runners. R1 is about a third of the way to second. Meanwhile batter/runner has passed first and taken a wide turn toward second. Now here is the problem. From the angle I had I could not tell if B/R had passed R1. R1 was probably closer to second because he was in a straight line between 1st and 2nd. But if you extended a line through 2nd base to the rightfield fence B/R appeared to be further than R1. I did not call anything because in my judgement B/R did not clearly pass R1. How would you make the call in this situation?
