Question
Guest Nate
No runners on, two outs. Batter gets walked. The batter happens to be the catcher. Ball four got by the defensive catcher and went to the backstop. The batter then rounds first, but misses the bag. Coach says “Time! Pinch runner for my catcher.” The runner who never touched first, walks off the field. The pinch runner DID touch first. No appeal, but if there was, what is the ruling? Would the pinch runner be out because the original runner didn’t touch first base? Or would it not matter because the pinch runner touched first for him?
