My answer: POTEDO #2

[PeteBooth]

Here's what you have to believe, Pete:

Sometime that play happened in the major leagues, and that's why it showed up in the book. Harry agreed with their answer because that's what the MLU did when the play occurred.

Papa C at least the Board is hopping somewhat but that's not the main reason I posted this as I think it's good dialogue.

The problem with this is one does not see this play on a regular basis, hence it probably happened once in a lifetime.

My gut tells me that if this type of play would happen on a regular basis, the rule would change but since this is one of those "once in a bluemoon" type plays I doubt whether this will be re - worded or re-written.

As far as why there are 3 strikes and 4 balls - I've always wondered that myself.
In mens softball they already start with a 1-1 count.

All I know is this: 7th game of World Series 2 out bottom of 9 score tied - r3 coming home - F2 misses tag r3 misses plate - PU - No Call.

R3 enters duggout. F2 thinks 3 out and heads for his duggout to get ready for extra innings.
Suddenly R3 comes back out of duggout touches Home - Game over - PU better have plenty of security
and ESPN will have plenty to talk about.

Thanks Papa C. Lets get this Board rolling.
