    Out or not

    If the ball in bounding, the base is not a safe haven for being hit by a batted ball. So, if the runner would have been out if he was off the base, he's out if he was on the base. If it's a fly ball, the runner need not leave the base, but he can't intentionally interfere.
  2. Assuming the SB rule is the same as the BB rule: 1) This isn't "tangle / untangle" -- that can only happen in the immediate vicinity of home plate and nearly immediately after B becomes BR. 2) It appears to me that F5 was the protected fielder. So, BR would be out for INT.
  3. It would be a balk if the step was NOT toward second base (assuming R2 was not advancing or giving the impression he was doing so)
  4. 6.03 Batter Illegal Action (a) A batter is out for illegal action when: (2) He steps from one batter’s box to the other while the pitcher is in position ready to pitch;
  5. I think even in FED the OP would be an out since the ball first hit the glove.. That said, it's not yet an out if the ball is trapped in the crook of the elbow. It become an out when it's controlled in the hand or glove.
  6. Yes. (even if there's an exception, this is a good way to think about it) Depends on the rules code. Always delayed in FED; sometimes delayed in OBR and NCAA In general this is correct, but the specifics depend on the rules code. For example, in FED, there's a minimum one base award form the location of the OBS. So, if the OBS was actually before second, (e.g., if F6 was standing on second and R1 had to slow down to approach) then the minimum award is second. In OBR, there's only a minimum award if the runner is being played on (and he's not in this scenario. And, the umpire should think of OBS as a *distance* (e.g., one or two strides) and must consider post-OBS play to determine the ruling. For example if F9 bobbles the ball and R1 now tries for home -- if he's out by only a stride or two, the umpire can award home; if he's out by "a lot" then the out stands.
  7. Yes, it applies. I have the play as legal.
  8. The "squeeze attempt" has nothing to do with it; it's the same as any other HBP. Just apply those rules.
  9. That's a fake to first and / or failing to pitch in a direct / continuous motion (whatever the specific wording is).
  10. A. She's only hurting her own kid in the long-run.
  11. In theory, you could have a time play when outs+runners = > 3 Yes, the signal should be given more than it is.
  12. So they can feel the catcher move to get out of the way. Generally discouraged
  13. Correct placement, but it's the first *PLAY* by the infielder, not the first throw. Doesn't matter in this situation, but it can make a difference.
