Rules I hope I never see in games

[greymule]

How about the popup on which the BR intentionally interferes with F3 and causes the winning run to score?

Or where the runner intentionally interferes with a throw and causes the winning run to score?

Yes, it can happen.

Going the other way, last year I finally got to call a play I hoped I'd see but thought I never would:

Abel on 1B, one out, Baker lines a drive to center. Abel is around 2B and on his way to 3B when F8 makes a diving catch. As Abel is returning to 2B on his way back to 1B, F8 fires the ball back to the infield. The ball somehow gets through everybody and then rolls into the dugout as Abel is reaching 1B.

The offense is claiming that Abel is awarded 3B. The defense is claiming the Abel is awarded 2B (the old one-plus-one). But I get to shock the ballpark by making the proper (ASA) call and award Abel home.
