No matter what rules we go by, we have to use some umpiring sense and when the Umpire Specifically says #23 stay on the base and then #23 vacates - TOO BAD. We still have FED's equivalent of 9.01(c) namely 10-3-g.Pete Booth

Oh, you bet he's out. I'll be happy to tell his coach why he's out.

BTW: It's my sad duty to announce that we have removed my mother-in-law from the family fast-pitch team. She was our pitcher for nearly 40 years. But she's 95 now and she can't get down off the mound to field the bunts. She is certainly not a happy camper since I told her. She has a call in to her lawyer. You don't suppose....
