You posit: A player who leaves the field to enter the dugout becomes bench personnel. We say why? You say (including the implied premise): Because she entered the dugout and I've said many times that a player who leaves the field to enter the dugout becomes bench personnel. This is circular and you should avoid doing it. Now here you do at least make a slight argument when you say what else could she be. To which I answer well, if she went and entered the wrong dugout would she become bench personnel for the other team? Or even better, if a runner having been retired ran over to her mom in the fan area to pick up a pair of sunglasses, then returned and interfered do we have spectator interference, or interference by a retired runner? And can you back any of that up by any reference to definitions or something in the rule book that could convince someone who does not believe that any player entering the bench area automatically instantly becomes bench personnel. |
