BR passes R1 after HR

[umpduck11]

The same type situation happened here a couple of years ago. Batter hits on of those will-it-make-it-or-not home runs, and rounds first, passing the baserunner who had held up to see it it was caught. Umpire ruled that the passing didn't matter because of the "dead ball".
The home team, on defense at the time, lost the game by one run. The visiting team won the area championship by virtue of that victory. DHC throws
everything that wasn't tied down out of his dugout, and STILL wasn't ejected. What does that tell us ????

What set of rules does NAIA use? Do all runners score if the batter passes the runner on first or just the runners that crossed the plate before the passing?

zm1283,

NAIA uses OBR with "modifications" (e.g. re-entry for starters, FPSR, etc.), and I don't believe any of the modifications touch on the question being discussed here.

I would treat as in OBR, if the BR passes a preceding runner for the 3rd out, treat as a "time play" in regard to other runners scoring.

Ump has no cojones.
