Does a runner advancing from 1st base to 2nd base have to make an effort to get out of the way of a fielder's throw on a double play attempt? Must they slide or get out of the way or be called for interference? If the runner is within his base path, not waving his arms or hands, not making contact with any fielder or the ball, is it interference if he doesn't make an attempt to get out of the way for the throw from second baseman to first baseman after he is put out via force out at second?

Correct. These rules need to be in place (and I'm thrilled that the Fed codified it) is that we were getting really close to Fed players dotting R1s that are going in standing to 2B. The rule ha

Sorry to sidetrack, but in a 13U game, I called FPSR on a kid (a couple actually on the same team. Looked like they were taught to come in standing up since they all did it) and I hear from the stands
