Bases Loaded, One Out...

[johnnyg08]

Play: Bases loaded, one out. F1 attempts a pickoff at first while engaged with the rubber. R3 steals home on the movement. R2 is standing on 2B while R1 dives back to 1B. The throw from F1 goes into the sleeve and subsequently lodges in the jersey of R1 while R1 is diving back into 1B.

Ruling: NFHS, NCAA, OBR

OBR, NCAA - CSFP, dead ball play stands. I think FED would be the same since R1 was going back to 1B.

FED:  R1 and R2 stay ar first and second.  R3 awarded home.  8.3.3B, and

SITUATION 16: With R2 on second base and one out, a ground ball is hit to the third baseman. The third baseman bobbles the ball and throws low to first base. The batter-runner (BR) slides into first as the thrown ball from third bounces off the first baseman’s mitt and into the BR’s jersey. When the third baseman threw the ball to first, R2 was attempting to advance to third base. When no one could find the baseball, R2 advances to home. The defensive team coach is adamant that the BR should be out and that R2 be returned to second base. The offensive team coach is equally adamant that the play should stand. RULING: When the ball became lodged in the offensive player’s jersey, it is immediately dead. The batter-runner is awarded first base. Because R2 was attempting to advance at the time the ball became lodged, R2 is awarded third base. (8-3-3f; 5-1-1g-4)

(Same result as NCAA and OBR, but for a slightly different reason).

The NCAA rule is:

l. If a fair batted or thrown ball becomes lodged in a player’s uniform, the ball shall be declared dead and bases awarded at the umpire’s discretion;
