Who is 1st batter next inning?
R1 on 3rd, no other runners, 2 outs. B4 has 3-2 count. B4 swings at next pitch but catcher misses ball so B4 runs towards 1st. R1 tries to score on passed ball but is put out at plate making the 3rd out. Does B4 lead off next inning or do you score B4 left on first and B5 leads off next inning?

B4's at bat was completed. B5 bats next.

Agree that B5 lead off the next inning. The reasoning is simple: B4 has become a BR, so her time at bat is complete. It is no different from any other 3rd out on a fielder's choice.

Typical is K-WP or K-PB. This one is just K-FC, with 2U or 2-1 listed near home on the runner. Batter is not actually placed anywhere in particular... although I've seen people draw the line to 1st in this case ... as that's where she would have been had this not been the 3rd out. |

Similar question regarding NFHS 3.5.4 SITUATION B:
R1 is on third with no one out. B2 hits a towering fly ball to right field. While the ball is in flight, the third-base coach pushes R1 back toward third base. The ball clears the fence for a home run. RULING: The ball becomes dead when it goes over the fence. R1 is out for being aided. B2 will be allowed to score on the home run unless R1 was the third out, then no run could score. (2-32; 8-6-5; 9-1-1 Exception f) As this situation is stated, R1 can not be the third out, but restate the situation and say "R1 is on third with two out.." How do you show this in the scorebook and who leads off the next inning? |
I don't do scorebooks, but who leads off the next inning is easy.
Who was the last batter to complete her turn at bat? B2. Why would you think she would bat again? |

Ops. just realized you were responding to Hawk65's question. Bob |
