Missed Base

[tbuck18]

Bases loaded with two outs and the batter hits a ball to the outfield ( uncaught) that clears the bases.  The batter runner is now standing on third base.

The batter runner in running the bases misses second base and the defense appeals legally and it is upheld by the umpire for the third out now.

My question is now does the run count from the runner originally on third as well as does the run count from the runner originally on second as well as does the run count from the original runner at first??

 

thanks for the help

Rule 4.09: learn it, live it, love it.

 

This is a missed base appeal, which in general can be a time play (runs prior to the appeal would score) or a force play (no runs score).

 

When the BR is successfully appealed at 2B, that's a time play, since the BR was not forced to 2B.

 

Had R1 been successfully appealed at 2B, that would be a force play, since R1 was forced to 2B.

All three runs (the three initial runners) count.  The only way they wouldn't score with the batter-runner being called out on appeal for missing a base would be if it were first base.

What happens then if the runner at second base in the same scenario misses home and the defense appeals and the umpire upholds the appeal. It would then be the third out so the runner originally on third would score but the runner on first scoring on the play would be nullified due to the runner at second being called out on appeal?? Am I correct here???

Yes, no following runner would score.

7.12 Unless two are out, the status of a following runner is not affected by a preceding
runner’s failure to touch or retouch a base. If, upon appeal, the preceding runner is the third
out, no runners following him shall score. If such third out is the result of a force play,
neither preceding nor following runners shall score.

Theres a whole set of plays in OBR under 4.09 that should clarify it for you.
