| Nov. 10, 2019 Hamstring | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Rule Interpretation If we go by the umpire ruling infield fly, why is the batter awarded 1st base. He is out. ( LOW PROFILE) THERE IS NOTHING IN THE RULE BOOK COVERING THIS UMPIRE MISTAKE IMO, IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A DOUBLE PLAY; THE FORCE OUT AT 2ND IS THE FIRST OUT AND THE BATTER/RUNNER WHO WAS NOT RUNNING FULL SPEED WAS THROWN OUT AT FIRST FOR THE 3RD OUT SHOULD'NT THE BATTER AND RUNNER UNDERSTAND THAT IT WAS NOT AN INFIELD SCENARIO |
| Nov. 9, 2019 Hamstring | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Rule Interpretation Runners on 1st and 3rd, one out. Batter hits a popup to the 2nd baseman. Umpire calls "infield Fly", but only the batter hears it and he slows down going to first. The 2b misplays the ball. Runner from 1B takes off for second, 2B recovers ball and throws to middle fielder for what should be a force for out number two. Middle man throws to first to complete double play. We all know that umpire made a mistake. Batting team claims batter slowed down hearing umpires call and therefore should not be out at first. A twenty minute discussion ensued with field director and a compromise was created with one out posted. How should the umpire have handled this scenario? |
