Game over or not?

[Dakota]

This is a posting poached from the NFHS board. I though it might be interesting to discuss...

Bottom of the 7th. Bases loaded. One out.

The score is home 0, visitors 1.

B4 hits a line drive to the gap in left center. R1 goes home from 3rd, R2 goes home via 3rd but misses the base at 3rd. R3 arrives at 2nd as the ball arrives in the infield to F6.

R3 sees R2 touch home. Thinking her team has won the game 2 to 1, runs off of 2nd base towards her team's dugout and F6 tags her out while she is off base.(out #2).

F5 takes the ball from F6, tells the BU she is appealing R2 missing 3rd base as she is standing on 3rd. The BU now calls R2 out.(out #3).

The Visitor's coach now thinks the score is a 1 to 1 tie.

Now the PU informs both coaches that NO runs can score on the play and that the Visitors have won the game 1 to nothing.
