Help me out here!

[buddha69]

Ok I kind of need help here on this one.

B3 hits a fly ball to the outfield that he assumes will be caught, and walks to (but not into) the dugout. Whe the ball is not caught, B3 runs to 1B. The umpire should call B3 out for being out of the 3-foot line.

True or False.

I put TRUE, But I found out that is it is False. Can someone please explain to me why it is False.

Thanks,

Because being out of the 3' running land did not interfer with the fielder taking the throw at first base.

Don't forget to read the complete rule, and the case plays/POE regarding a rule.

This answer should apply to all codes.

Roger is all over this one.

Buddha, one thing to remember is that unless there is a play being made on a runner, they are not required to run anywhere as long as they touch the bases in the proper order and do not commit and act of interference or USC.

Before someone jumps in here with a "What about the LBR?", I am refering to a live ball not in the pitcher's possession in the circle.
