pitcher illegal use of glove

[scrounge]

I'm not sure how you could possibly get a 3 base award out of that. He didn't field the ball with detached equipment, since the glove was properly worn at the time he touched the live, batted ball.

Now an argument could be made he then used detached equip to throw the ball, which I initially thought during a similar conversation on just this topic on another board. But after discussion and reflection, more accurately I think we have a lodged ball here. Either way it's a 2 base award. By taking off the glove and throwing the ball/glove unit, the fielder admitted it was lodged IMO. Doesn't matter what happened after that, lodged ball, kill it, award 2 bases thusly. This is all assuming Fed, of course.
