  1. Yes I agree with everything you said. And yes, I guess it didn't matter if anyone was on first. Not that it matters, this was the semi finals of the consolation bracket, not even the main bracket. Once the dust settled, I was in shock. The coaches were so proud of themselves.
  2. Ok, this is a bit complicated. But, two 10u teams were playing in a knockout tournament and went to extra innings. Away team scored one in their half of the inning. Home team scored one right away and then got two outs. There was a kid on 3rd and 1st base was UNoccupied. We found out later that the coaches for the home team told the kid batting that if he swings on strike 2 and misses that he should drop his bat and run to first (as if it was a 3rd strike drop). The dugout (coaches and players) started yelling for the kid to run. This was all a ploy for the catcher to get confused and throw the ball to 1st and then the kid on 3rd basically strolls home with all the confusion and the game is over. It worked incredibly well and they walked it off with this play. Umpire said it's legal and that was it. I believe it's legal but pretty bush. I'm just wondering if anyone has ever heard of this being employed and if there is some off chance the umpire should have called a dead ball.
