Interestingly enough, had this exact situation happen last Saturday. Bottom of 7, runners on 1 and 3, 2 outs, 3-2 pitch, called strike 3, PU (not me) comes up with "Strike 3, batter is out". In the mean time, the catcher is chasing the ball to the back stop, batter goes to first, runner from 3 scores to tie the game while the catcher unsuccessfully tries to throw the batter out at first. Defense coach wants the game called because PU called the batter out, offense wants to play on. We finally decided that since the rule allows the batter to advance, and the three primary players who should know the rule (batter, catcher and first base) all played on like nothing unusual had happened, we let the play stand, took the heat and went on to extra innings. You gotta love this game.
