Balk (Dead ball/live ball)

Seriously,

Somebody, anybody, please tell me how to "activate" the ignore feature. Lawump is ready to use it for the very first time, ever.

Take this play -- the coach goes out to visit the pitcher (I forget is this a dead ball or a live ball? Well, let's assume it's a dead ball). The pitcher stupidly stands on the rubber during this visit. The coach decides to make a pitching change. As the pitcher hands the ball to the coach, he drops it. This is a balk, right?

So, my question is, in the play above, if the COACH is standing on the rubber and takes the ball from the pitcher and then drops it, is this also a balk? It must be because as soon as the coach takes the ball, he becomes the new pitcher and is still the pitcher until the releiver gets in from the bullpen and then takes the ball.

sheesh, indeed.

NOw that's funny I don't care who you are ...

Thanks
David

1. Click on "User CP" in the blue menu bar.
2. Near the bottom left of the next screen, click the "Buddy/Ignore Lists" link.
3. Add suitable individuals.

Once you ignore, you never go back. As they say, ignoring is bliss.

It only took a few years...but I now have finally started an "ignore list". It took nearly two years for a poster to come along to convince me to do so.
