Posted | Discussion |
April 18 Kawaihau 1 posts | If a runner overruns a base and runs left of the line extended by the base path, without any intention to advance to the next base, is he automatically out? |

The runner may be tagged for the out if he makes an attempt to advance to second. He must be tagged. The batter/runner may over run first to the left of the foul line but if he doesn't make an attempt to advance to second he won't be out. |
