Question
Guest Rookie Mom
Had an interesting game this weekend where the ump ruled a runner out then safe. The game involved 8U teams.
Our second baseman fielded the ball and make a physical tag on the base runner who was advancing from first. The runner collided with fielder after the tag was made and knocked him down. When the fielder hit the ground, the ball case out of the glove. The fielder was hit hard & injured. The runner made no attempt to avoid tag or fielder. Would this be an out or would runner be safe?
