By the way, how do you insert smiley's into the post? Is that something you do with an external application or is there some feature on the officialforum that you are using?

I just typed a ; and ), however, there are sites which supply this and other icons to which others on this board are much more adept than I.

Right. When you are in the reply window, there is a link in the small print above that says Smilies. Click this link and you can see all of the canned smilies and what you type ... :D :confused: :eek: etc.

Also in that fine print is a link that says vB code. Click that one and it will explain how to use vB code to do all kinds of things, including embedding images and embedding URL links.

There are some web sites that provide the small .gif files for a large variety of smilies and allow you to live link into them. To use these, you embed the image using vB code.

This board also supports HTML for even more tricks, if you want and know some of the HTML tags.

Oh boy, now Mike has a new toy. Next he will be downloading them like I did. Nothing but luv for ya Mike.

I will just about bet my house that you won't see Mike playing
with the "smilies". Not his thing. Although now and then he will
throw one at you to make a point.

I know I got the wrong out!

Interfering with a fair batted ball is interfering with a defensive player's opportunity to make an out. Nothing in 8.7.P states that the interference is with the fielder, just his opportunity to make an out. Also, it's referenced in the Case Play.

As far as selling the out, I'm sure I could too. However, is it right to sell a call even when the rules don't support it? In the case describe (case play 8.8-51) it is ASA's position that interference should not be ruled if the contact was incidental. Of course this is umpires judgement and we are all on the honor system, but if you really believe it was not intentional, by rule and by the case book, you have to rule it a live ball and no out.

Indoor game, last year. Dutch national team vs a dutch clubteam. R1 comes home after a hit to SS. She grounded out at home plate by more thant 1,5 meters. Still she slides. When catcher makes an attempt to make an extra out at 1st base, she's swept on the ground by the runner, who's already out.
By rule, the next runner close to homeplate, should be declared out. I gave BR out.
Even national coach eat my explanation that the play, by catcher, was made against BR. So she should be decared out... Indeed, how do you sell it!
