How about a little slack??
He wrote: " Does anyone have an example where you would not award first base? Where is this adressed in the rules? "
Pete you might want to cut him a little slack. If you quote his ENTIRE post,you'll see that he asks about an example of when you WOULDN"T award first base and THEN asks where it is addressed in the rules. It would appear he is asking where in the rules it says you can keep him at the plate? He is looking for some type of explanation that he can give a coach as to why the batter is staying in the box after being hit. I haven't been umpiring as long as many of you, and I read the book 5 to 10 times every season, plus many times I go looking for a specific scenario. But for a new guy to know where to go to find an answer to the question he asked is quite tough. Just this official's opinion.
