I'm sure you guys who are friends with the MLU and MiLB and DIV 1 can expound on this if you haven't on plenty of other posts in the past.
Umpires don't see "ties" and then decide which ruling to choose from or base a call on how well or poorly a fielder played a ball. Umpires see a sequence of events and then rule on what happened first. THERE ARE NO TIES.

Thanks, Steve. I completely missed the RBI mention...........

Sorry guys, I just realized by the confusion I forgot to mention in the Op there was R1 and R2.

Thank you.
You reported/interpreted that you "believe BigUmp56's point is that U2 in DEEP B may very likely be behind the fielders on this play."

BigUmp56 post looked like a question to me instead of an argument. Your "interpretation" was innacurate so why address BigUmp56 with your inaccurate interpretation?

I don't believe I posted anything as an argument.

If it turns out I misinterpreted BigUmpr56's post, I apology for my error. I was not looking for a fight, just an explanation.
