Thanks guys -

I think some of these guys play 16" or USSSA and forget you can't fake in ASA 12", but I did have one guy just say that he was losing his grip on the ball so he stopped. One more...

I'm going to have a hard time getting intent on a play like this unless the BR veers into the fielder. If the BR is running within the confines of the rules trying to get to 1B before the fielder,...

Contact at 1B when F3 running to bag

I have had this happen several times already this year on ground balls to F3 where F3 when racing to beat the runner to 1B will cross over the bag and there will be a collision between F3 and BR. I...

ASA Men's 12" SP - Double Base at 1B

Batter hits a hot shot to F3 - Ball bounces off F3 into foul territory - F3 retrieves ball and dives back touching orange (foul) side of bag just ahead of BR -...

Interesting Play

ASA SP Rec. Mens - 1 umpire

1 out R1 on 3rd, R2 on 2nd, R3 on 1st - Batter hits soft liner between F1 and F6 - No way either one could have caught with ordinary effort, F1 barely gets glove on...

The way I was taught was to not call time for plays until I was sure the runners were no longer advancing; therefore if there is only the BR I can wait just a few seconds longer to see if a play...

This is a sad commentary

I only do Adult SP and rarely have to eject anyone. I think that the main reason is most of the leagues around here have not only a casual profanity rule (which I know...

Had a similar play last year doing ASA Coed Adults, I am only umpire:

R1 on 1st, 1 out, Batter hits a sharp one hopper to F6 who steps on 2B and fires ball to F3. F3 misses 1B by at least 3 ft, I...

At what point did this cease to be a force and need to be appealed? Did it happen once R1 passed home? If this is true, does it also hold true for non-force situations? For example, R1 on 3B tags...

Just to make sure I understand then -

If F6 had, in my judgement, the better play on the ball then we have INT on R1, who is then out and the BR is awarded 1B

If F5 had, in my judgement, the...

ASA rules - R1 on 2B, Batter hits slow ground ball between F5 and F6 who both charge toward the ball - F6 runs into R1 and knocks R1 into F5 just as F5 is fielding the ball - They all fall on the...

Thanks, I wasn't sure if the fact that F10 is normally an outfielder made a difference. I actually had A happen in a game, called it a dead ball and awarded BR 1B. Had the biggest argument from the...
