This happened in a 10 year old game being played under national federation of high school rules. No outs, no one on, batter hits ball over centerfield fence for homerun. Team comes out of third base dugout and lines up in foul territory from 3rd to home and high fives the home run hitter as he runs from third to home. The umpire calls the batter out for his team doing this and said the run did not count. Everything I read in the rules and case studies seems to indicate this is not a violation of the rules since this is a dead ball situation once the ball is over the fence and no interference is taking place on an attempted play. What rule would make the batter out?
