This happened tonight in 11-12 year old Pony baseball.
No outs, loaded bases. Dropped 3rd strike. Runner takes off for first, all runners begin to advance, thinking that batter was not yet out. Catcher steps on home plate. R3, advancing towards home doesn't realize batter is already out, and thinks HE is out by force, and heads for visitor's side dug-out, missing home plate by several feet before he crosses it. (Never reaches it). Is he out? (IF so, on what basis, exactly - {abandoning base?}) or do you score the run since there was no appeal? (Catcher stepping on home was NOT appealing, he thought he was getting R3 out at home on a force). Following this, ball was pitched to next batter. Thanks for your input.
