Pete,
J/R talks about "interference without a play," but that occurs when the batter interferes in one of several ways AND the catcher is NOT making a play. But on the play in question, neither...

Maybe my reading comprehension score is weak, but I understood that the batter hit the ball when the shortstop threw it back towards the catcher.
Here's what I have:
If the pitch struck him...

Re: Situation
Plate umpire didn't see it the way you did? How did the call get changed? Did he ask you for help?

In a post above, Carl Childress tells us that enforcing the penalty for interference and then changing the penalty when the coach chooses the play could create havoc on the field and in the stands.

I would not offer the coach the option in a league playing OBR. So now there are three of us.
But I am prepared to inform the coach of the option if he gives me ANY reason to believe he...

I think Clemens had heard that it was a possibility that someone (perhaps even Piazza) might let a bat fly out of their hands during the game. I think he reacted as though that's what happened, even...

I saw the same thing. But I don't think the first 6 runs scored by the Yankees had anything to do with Reed's strike zone. The A's starter was laying it in and the Yankees were pounding him. I...

Let me see if I've got this.
In NCAA, the batter is NOT out, so base awards need to be made. (Is it definite that in NCAA, the inadvertent kick puts the batter on second? or is this still...

At least I got the base award right!

I'm not sure why it would matter that it was inadvertent. When a runner is hit by a batted ball, it need not be deliberate. The problem, as I see it, is that this is not a batted ball, so it's not...

On and on
I guess we'll have to go on and on.
I haven't been very successful at making the only point that I wanted to make. I don't want to have a situation in which umpires rule the same situation...

Jim,
I read your last post and although there's lots to disagree with, I must go further than that on one issue. I did not use the word "stupid" in anything I've written on this issue (or any...

I have a book called "Make the Right Call", but I can't find the section "American League Umpires Rules and Regulations" which you referred to. In my book, trips to the mound are discussed...
