appeal - time play??
R1, R3. 2 out. BR hits a single. R3 scores. R2 goes to third but misses 2nd. defense properly appeals and R2 is declared out for the 3rd out. does the run count?? is the out of R2 considered a force play since he never legally reached.
i know if we have R3 only with 2 outs and BR hits a double but misses first and then a proper appeal at first is completed. the run does not count. does this same theory apply in my above situation. thanks. |

Here's a somewhat similar play that NCAA calls differently from OBR and Fed:
R3, R1, 1 out. Batter hits a hard one-hopper to F3, who steps on 1B for the second out. R3 scores. F3 throws to 2B for the tag play on R1, but the ball goes into the outfield. R1 then misses 2B and advances to 3B. The defense successfully appeals the miss of 2B for the third out. In OBR and Fed, the third out is not considered a force play, because the out on the BR at 1B removed the force play on R1. Therefore, R3's run counts. However, in NCAA, R3's run is nullified, because regardless of the out at 1B, R1 was forced at 2B when the play began. Note that in NCAA, if R1 is simply tagged out trying to advance to 2B, the run counts. But if R1 misses 2B and is subsequently out on appeal, the run does not count.

What is the "when the play began" reference?
2006 BRD, play 243, page 145. Force at "time of pitch" (i.e., when the play began) as opposed to "time of miss."

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your sentence here, but are you saying that with runners on first and third and two outs, if R3 hits the plate before R1 is tagged for out #3 before reaching second that R3's run counts? If that's what you're saying, it's incorrect. R1's out is a force out regardless of how it's made.
There is indeed a misunderstanding. With runners on 1B and 3B and 2 outs (as you describe above), the third out on R1 at 2B is of course a force out, and when R3 touches the plate is irrelevant. The run does not score. Note that the play I described earlier began with runners at 1B and 3B and one out; the second out came on F3's tag of 1B. After the second out removes the force on R1, an out on R1 is of course a time play, unless R1 misses 2B, in which case the appeal at 2B is a force play even though R1 was not forced at the time he missed 2B. I admit it's a strange difference from OBR and Fed.
