The runner establishes his baseline, that's the rule and there is no arguing with it.

In your situation, R1 is heading to 2nd base and he established his baseline in that manner. The BR is heading...

Coach, was the runner in the running lane or not? This is important because if he's in the lane, he cannot interfere with the throw. He is also protected at the end of the lane so he can step out and...

I guess you didn't notice that you posted on an UMPIRE's website, not a BASEBALL website.....LOL!!!!!!

We don't care about the player's mistakes, only the umpire's mistakes.

The reality of it is, the BU has to see a proper catch and in a situation like this, the BU has to either see the ball in the glove or an intentional transfer to the throwing hand. The OC can...

As long as it is properly BBCOR certified and as long as it is not on a "bad bat" list given to you by your association, let it go.

I agree that the field is unfit for play. Simply put, if it's raining long enough that the ground is so soft that a ball plugs, then cleats no longer can provide traction. For safety's sake, the game...

TIME should have never been called, that was a live ball. They proved that when they awarded home to the runner. This is something we see in youth ball several times a year.

You are over thinking this scenario.

Is the ball in fair territory? Yes
Did the BR make contact with a fair ball? Yes

The call is OUT!

No other thinking is required to make this call.

Sigh....
Common Sense

Was it ball 4? --- Yes
Were there any runners on base? --- No
Was there any play to be made? --- No

So why is this even a question?

I don't see what the confusion in this video is all about. In OBR, the lead runner must advance and touch home and the batter runner must touch 1st base. The other runners do not matter and the game...

Deceiving the runner is part of the pitcher's job. A properly executed pick off always involves deceiving the runner. The question is was the deception legal or illegal.

Balk - HBP

Here is one that doesn't happen very often and usually gets messed up. I watched this at an American Legion game a couple of nights ago.

I agree with Bob on this. Pure judgement because there was no "voluntary release" by transferring the ball to the throwing hand.
