Ales are brewed at warmer temperatures with top-fermenting yeasts. Lagers are brewed at cooler temperatures with bottom-fermenting yeasts... unless you live in one of the states that mandates a labeling of "Ale" based on alcohol strength.

As stated, the batter is out. Doesn't make any difference if she was swinging or not. The batter is not eligible to advance to 1B since it was occupied at the time of the pitch. You cannot rule that the BR interfered with a D3K since neither existed in this case. Best case scenario, rule the ball dead as a blocked ball and return the runners if, IYJ, there was no play to be had by the catcher. Worst case scenario, enforce 8.7.P and call the runner closest to home out (rule only requires the possibility of a play, not an out) and return the trailing runner to the base last touched at the time of the interference.

We're doing dinner and a movie at the Alamo draft house. I just ordered a St. Arnold, will report back after I've tried it.

Both scenarios make sense. Curious....how did the three of you rule in that 14U game where this play occurred....the best case scenario or the worst case scenario? |

Sorry...Amber Ale. Honestly, I was a little disappointed.

This type of ruling occurs too often as umpires try to be "fair" and use that to justify a ruling without regards to the actual rule. Did the catcher have a play? Can't tell since the ball was hit with the bat as she reached for it. That act there kills ANYTHING and if the runners did not have the base by that point (they did not), the minimum is going back to the previous base. Umpires need to remember there are two teams on the field and they deserve equal treatment. The offense is the team that caused the problem, so I cannot see "rewarding" them with a free base.
