R1 on 3rd, R2 on second base. Illegal pitch. Batter swings at pitch and bat hits catcher's glove and dribbles out in front of home. Runner takes off for first and is (my addition) a) is hit by throw from cacther to 1st base in the back in fair terroritory before 3 foot lane b) in fair terroritory after 3 foot lane. You make the call!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Has anyone had that play by the way?

FP or SP? The glove dribbles out in front of the plate? (sorry, couldn't resist)

Assuming that the catcher was throwing to a defender covering 1B and there were no intentional acts of interference on the BRs behalf:

A. is going to be nothing regardless of the game and the application of the CO or IP (fp) would depend on where the BR & runners ended up.

B.
SP - CO cancelled by INT. BR out, runner's return.
FP - CO cancelled by INT. However, the IP has no such caveat. Assuming the coach accepts the penalty and not the play, ball is awarded to batter, R1 scores and R2 goes to 3B.
