Greg, for your lst situation, keep in mind that light travels at 186,000 miles/second. Therefore, since the reflection of the light from runner at second had to travel 127+ feet farther to you than the reflection from the runner at the plate, the out at second occurred before the run scored even though the two events appeared simultaneous to you.

I'm sure any offensive coach would take such an explanation without any dispute whatsoever.
