TV did an awful job telling us which runner was left on first base after the play, so I'm not completely sure. I THINK it was the batter.

I was happy for the rally-killing out here... but the umpire in me doesn't understand how this outcome was what they came up with.

Oh, I guess I misunderstood your first post. I thought you were saying that R1 remained on 3B after the throwing error by the defense.

I can't see how they could have called out R1 here under any circumstances. They must have ruled runner INT on the BR and called him out, returning R1 to 1B.

The box score should have it.
