Obsessively Compulsive (Even With Medication) ...

JRutledge, Back In The Saddle, and mick: Thanks for your expert information. That's the problem, you're the experts, I'm not. You're 100% right. I'm just trying to figure out the wording of the MLB rule. It's not that I'm into spelling and grammar, like other members of this Forum. It's just that this is the way my scientific (I'm a retired science teacher, and presently a chemist), obsessively compulsive (even with medication), mind works.

6.05 A batter is out when: After he hits a fair ball, he or first base is tagged before he touches first base.

7.08 Any runner is out when: He fails to reach the next base before a fielder tags him or the base, after he has been forced to advance by reason of the batter becoming a runner.

If the ball hits the glove at the same time as the foot hits the bag, aren't the outcomes different in 6.05 and 7.08?

Please respond patiently one more time, and if I'm not satisfied, and foolishly try to ask for help again, you're welcome to call me any name in the book, or not in the book. I'm posting as a "fanboy" here and expect to be treated as one.
