Fed Game Wild Play

[SC Ump]

I presume that since you and the PU spoke that the statement about the ball being thrown after BR had touched first was the umpire's opinion and not just yours. If that is the case, BR should have been at third. R1, at 2B at the start of the play, would have been award home whether or not they had already obtained third at the time of the throw.

(I believe that "baseball" rules state that if the play is the first from the infield, the award is from the location at the time of the pitch and not the time of the throw.)

Speculating on the awards those umpires dished out, I can only guess they used the "sand-lot rule" of one base on an overthrow. I wonder if they call the hands part of the bat and give ties to the runners. (In that case the whole situation might have been avoided if the visitors had just yelled, "Do-overs!")
