As I stated before, though, many call it a different way.
Beat the ball, the call goes to the runner;
Ball beats the runner, the call goes to the defense;
Both get there at the same time, the call goes to the umpire!  |
No such thing as "ball and runner get there at same time"...if the BR does not touch the bag before the ball is caught--OUT!! (everytime)
