Actually Tyler, everyone except you was already on the page. We just waited for you to catch up. You are still taxiing out to the runway, nowhere near ready for takeoff.

Not quite everyone.

Oh, the Humanity...............:D

Then by all means let me explain. Non-consecutive runners would be runners not consecutively on base starting with R1, as in R1, R2, R3, for example. Or in terms you're more accustomed with; non-forced runners. It may not be written in a rule book this way, but common sense and a basic knowledge of English should have been enough for you to understand.


Tim.

I meant after Tim revealed the answer. We were all shooting down the runway in our respective Gulfstreams and Citation Xs ready to take off while you were in your Piper Cub taxiing out. Damn, this plane analogy is getting old.:)

Then, please, please, stop peeking at your ignore list and you won't have to watch the three crazy kamikazes crash and burn.

Hmmmm....

I've always found that the "peeking" is not the problem.

Failing to resist the urge to respond, on the other hand...

JMO.

Time revealed the answer unless all runners advance one base. Tell me when runners don't get to advance one base on a balk.

Now Steve, I knew the question to the answer. It was quite obvious in my post. Tim proposed the question, There's one other instance in baseball where a batter that's been HBP is not awarded first base, other than the reasons given in 6.08. Note the phrase other than the reason given in 6.08. What did you do. You gave a ruling found in 6.08.

Now I might be flying a Piper Cub, but it is all to obvious to most the rubber band broke on your aircraft a long time ago.....:D

Jaksa/Roder define and employ the term "consecutive runner". A point of clarification: It is tempting to equate "consecutive runner" to "forced runner", but the two terms aren't quite the same. With R1 and R2, there are consecutive runners but, for example, in the event of an infield fly, they aren't forced runners.

Steven Tyler, why not replace some of the hours you spend posting here with earning the $50 to buy J/R-- and then follow up with the critical step: reading it?

I'm plane tired of this thread!!

*Groan*...that one crashed on takeoff.:rolleyes:
