Runner touches home before 1b appeal
Runner on 3rd, 2 outs. Batter hits ground ball to SS, throw pulls first baseman off of bag, but batter-runner runs over the base without touching it. After runner from third had touched home, first baseman appeals and tags first base before batter runner returns to it. Batter runner is out, does run score?

No run, play was properly appealed and BR never becomes a runner.

This would be the same ruling as if she was thrown out on a play at first base prior to reaching the base. |

Cecil is changing the OP, just like everyone on this forum hates.

But implying the answer to the question might be rule-set dependent is wrong. This is no run in any rule set (and all of the small ball rule-sets as well, if anyone cares). |
No Run

The best answers are those that use the rule book verbiage, and make no effort to add a personal flavor. Either the batter-runner touched first base safely, or was put out prior to first touching the base; that is all that matters in determining if the run scored. Anything else only muddies the water for those looking for reasons to reinterpret a rule. [/rant] |
