I need some help with #32 Bottom of seventh ining two outs tying run at third.B4 hits pop fly to F6.Thinking ball will be caught,B4 hurls his bat over the dugout.F6 drops the ball while runner from third touches home and B4 obtains first base.U1 will rule
A.B4 is ejected for his action,run does not count game over
B.B4 is ejected.The offense will,after time is called,replace him with legal substitute.The run scores,the game is now tied.
C.B4 is declared out.the game is over

rails,

What's the penalty specified for 3-3-1m?

JM

So...what did you find out?

Don't think too much and answer EXACTLY what the book says. I like JM's responses - he told you, but he didn't tell you.

[dash_riprock]

Check the case Book too. JM's rule cite will take you to the right place.

Thank you, I read the rule and really he should be ejected and declared out
So really the answer should be A & C but there is only one answer

I heard just last night that the NFHS test this year is split between true false and NCAA-style multiple choice, where more than one answer may be selected.

The NFHS multiple choice questions are single answer. I've already taken Part I (all WI officials take Part I and the 22% who are L5 and Master take Part II, both open-book and via the mail).

1) WHY IS he declared out?

2) If A and C are the "same" answer, and only one answer can be correct, then A and C are wrong. (Test taking skills -- of course, that assumes a competent test-maker)

[rails42]

Because in rule3-3 m the penalty says if on offense the player is ejected and declared out

[dash_riprock]

Take a closer look. You are citing the penalty for 3-3-1(n), See 3.3.1 U in the Case Book.

The first sentence applies to all subsections (m) through (q).

The next two sentences apply to (n) only.

The last sentence applies to (q) only.

Is one of the answers missing one of the penalties?
