OK Sam... got it now. Consider:

R2, R3. 2 outs. 2-2 pitch. CHECKED SWING, ball caught CLEANLY, and now catcher FIRES to third to attempt pick off. Ball sails into LF. R3 scores.. R2 rounds and comes home and is TAGGED out on a banger! 3 outs.

NOW....MAY defense appeal the checked swing call. (Batter practically screwed himself into the ground!)
This situation is now basically the same as Sit#1, in my mind at least . Since the strikeout technically occured BEFORE the ensuing action, I would allow the checked swing appeal and call the batter out disallowing the run.

Now here's a wrinkle for you. Same situation as above, except - tie score, bottom of the last inning. Catcher fires, R3 scores winning run. Do you allow the appeal now?




My answer: Yes.
