Well, when you don't provide a clear scenario, that's what will happen.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

Pretty clear cut,except for 0 outs
scored tied,bottom of the 7th runners on 2nd and 3rd high fly ball hit to ss runner from 3rd base raises home, runner on 2nd base grabs ss as she is ready to catch fly ball (remember runner on 3rd touched home when interference accurs) would you let the winning run to score?

Which was, of course, critical to giving an answer, which led to all of the alternate scenarios.

But, even though the way the situation was stated in the OP was an invitation to elaboration and alternate scenarios, we've never really needed a reason to go OT around here.

It was the responders which ASSUMED and try to apply different scenarios involving outs that were not offered. If you don't tell me there are outs, I addressing the scenario as if there were no outs.

And yes, I would allow the run to score.

Andy is right. According to the rules, the run scores. Doesn't say I have to like it.

I know - sometimes I wish I was one of those guys who could just make up rulings as I feel.
