A walk is as good as a hit...maybe

I agree, Mark, and that is also what mcrowder was saying.

Bottom of 7th, tie score, bases loaded, BR receives a base on balls...

No outs. R1 crosses home, R2, R3, and BR join the celebration failing to touch 3rd, 2nd, and 1st. Defense has 3 appeals available to them, and if they make all three, inning is over and no runs score.

You do the scenarios as to who touches, who doesn't and number of outs for variations on this.

I still have a question out there... what about the runners abandoning the attempt to advance and entering DBT. This is not an appeal play.
