R3 Misses Plate on Walk

[dddunn3d]

I do not assert that I know the rules better than anyone else here; on the contrary, my very posting on this board should be evidence of that.

But when it comes to asking someone with more experience han I, I have a difficult time accepting an interpretation just because it comes from a BIG DOG. I guess I've had enough experiences with Smitty to have a healty scepticism.

However, when a situation or rule is explained to me in a clear and logically consistent fashion, I will be the first to say I see the light, and thanks.

In this situation, however, no one has yet to make that argument. That's why I have asked three times for a ruling on the above similiar play. When someone can rule on that play in a consistant fashion commensurate with the original situation that started all of this, then I will be able to say I see the light.
