Ridiculous rule

Guy hits one off the wall, misses first, hits second, and slides into third safely but is called out when tagged, and no one but the umpire knows why. But if he hits one off the wall and misses second, he's not called out when he's tagged at third.

So they changed last year's "no appeal, umpire just calls it" rule except when a missed base is a force and the runner is tagged for some reason that has nothing to do with the missed base.

Goes into the dumb rules Hall of Fame.
