The Play
I've done a little editing for an easier read, but Tom McCarville originally posted the play on Eteamz.
Start of play score = 9-7 top of 6th, favor the "D". Sacs loaded. One out. Obvious extra base hit possibility by "BR". R1 from 3rd scores. R2 from 2nd comes home looks like 9-9 but missed 3rd base on the way home. R3 from 1st had also scored on the play. At that point it looks like 10-9 for the "O" team. "BR" going into 2nd after touching 1st base slows up when ball gets to the infield near 2nd base & gets in a "pickle". "BR" got caught in a run down". Ruled out by running out of the baseline. Out # 2. That runner was ruled out after the R3 from 1st scored. No runners on base & 10-9 score favoring the "O". Then the "D" calls for an appeal on R2 for missing 3rd. Ump rules "OUT". Then stated 3rd out & only the 1st runner scored because R2 actually made the 3rd out on appeal, therefore the following "R"'s couldn't score. Ending top of the 6th with score 9-8 favoring the "D". "O" wants to protest the Umps ruling. Ump takes protest. After the discussion re: the ruling, he calls game because its to dark to continue. Game over 9-8 & old "D" wins the game as "O" protests the win.
