Upon reading the first couple pages of this thread, I was worried that UmpLarryJohnson was back and we would have to listen to his jibberish again. Then I saw that the thread is about 4 months old.

But like oyaisee was saying, the original poster was not asking for a rule interpretation. I thought his third ejection was a bit early, but I liked his first two. Any time a player gets in my face, or approaches me violently, he's tossed.

Not that it matters, but with FPSR, does there need to be a Good chance for the Catcher to retire thre runner involved in the decision? Without a throw here, I wonder if the catcher choose not to throw? I'm just curious, as I don't currently deal with this rule, but could easily see having to in the future.

I don't think you have a grasp on the Force Play Slide Rule. It has nothing to do with a throw from the catcher.

I think you're talking about batter interference.
