May 27, 2009 Big D 2 posts | Scoring Situation 1 out runners on first and third. Batter hits a fly ball to the outfield which is caught. Runnier on third tags up and crosses the scoring line sucessfully, The runner at first think there was 2 outs when the ball is hit does not tag up at frist base. The ball comes back to the infield and directly to first base at this time there are 3 outs the runner on third crossed the scoring line before the 3RD out is made DOES THIS RUN COUNT? |

May 27, 2009 TexasTransplant Men's 70 516 posts | This is not a force play. It is a live ball appeal. If the runner crossed the scoring line before the 3rd out was recorded, the run counts. |
May 27, 2009 frampton Men's 55 55 posts | Texas Transplant is correct, a force play involves only a runner forced to advance because another runner has taken the base the runner was on. Not the case on a fly out. |
May 27, 2009 Reggie44 Men's 50 43 posts | Texas Trans I stand corrected. The run for sure counts as long as he crosses the plate before the ball gets to 1st base. Thanks for the needed help! |
May 28, 2009 Big D 2 posts | I thank you all for your imput and interpertation of the rule |
