Situation: 14U travel teams, bases loaded, no outs, 2 umps, BU in C2, passed ball.
Play: R1 starts home, retreats, ends up in rundown, BU ends up several feet inside 3rd, calls R1 out on tag by F5. Question: Should BU have been somewhere else? Reason: When R1 started for home, R2 went to 3rd w/o seeing R1 return, but then starts back to 2nd. After the R1 out, R2 tries 3rd again, sees F5 coming and starts back to 2nd. Meanwhile: BU is turning (counter-clockwise) to get an angle on R2 and R2 bumps into BU. Then: F5 throws to F6 who tags R2 out 20 - 30 feet from 2nd and the offense coaches blame BU for being in the way. Question: Should BU have been or going somewhere else?
