 That was PUs contention. I'm trying to provide some rule support for this ruling which I figured PU kicked.  Seems like one of those "legal because it doesn't say it isn't " type of situations. I...

 Ok, read this initially wrong so never mind question.  Seems like U1 better be able to make call and move 60 feet before R1 moves 180 feet.  While difficult, that shouldn't be impossible even for a...

 I suppose that you could warn for throwing equipment or something. But 3.3.1l says the penalty for deliberately throwing a helmet, bat and so on, is ejection. I don't see a lot of grey area there. It...

 Perhaps, but I don't think so.  If she had left early to go to second and the throw back beat her you wouldn't have to appeal it, she'd just be out.  To be honest your speculation sounds ore like...
