It's Runner Interference Because The Runner Can't Get In The Way Of Them Fielding The Ball. If The Ball Was Really Hit Like That The Runner Should Have Been Well Past The 2nd Baseman.
Frickin FIELDER INTERFERENCE what are you talking about RUNNER INTERFERENCE? The shortstop was cutting off a ball from the outfield (In case you forgot how a baseball field looks) and he should've been almost to the grass out there well before the ball came in. It's fielder interference because the fielder did not have the ball yet and is in the basepath, well past the contact of the bat phase.
@ahtartersauce101 You don't know much about baseball do you. It is RUNNER INT. The runner has to avoid the fielder and ball. If he interferes with the fielder's chance to field the ball, the runner is out for INT. It's in the rules of baseball. Pretty easy call for anyone who knows baseball. It was a batted ball, not a thrown ball.
okay that would not be interference!! the Short Stop got in the way at the last second! so the runner couldnt do shit to get away! so whoever the umpire is is a fucking dumbass!
that shouldnt have been the 3rd out the shortstop was in the runners way ..... and he didnt have the ball soo it should have been an extra base to the runner
@rangask8er the only time the runner is aloud to run out of the baseline is to avoid running into a field playing a batted ball. I've been patched for 8 year. thanks
@RPGesus10 yes. ive played baseball all of my life. that has happened to me many times and it doesnt hurt. do you play baseball? fyi i just turned 13 and i can pitch 71 mph and i hit 26 homeruns in 3 years of little league.
@brandtultralord Or one of them could have a bad leg like i do.. Their legs got twisted up and so if one did have a bad leg, it hurts like a motherfucker..
if the fielder is attempting to get a batted ball, the runner has to go around or wait until he gets it. if the runner makes contact, that is runners interference
if you dont know anything about baseball dont comment like you do.the feilder has the right to the ball.the runner has to stay out of the way.besides they barely touched each other.there both pussies.way to teach your kids to man up.thats americas future
ya thats the shorts stop fault haha the runner wasnt even trying to interfere in the least he lookd at the ball the whole time not behind him kind of a shitty call
What a dorky piece of shit you are, why did you watch in the first place if you can not handle it. What were you one of those little cry baby boys that had trauma as a kid. Pathetic, grow up and have some balls to say something like that to some ones face, you little bitch. Whatever I do not need to waste any more time or responses to my playballs, I mean playdrums.
feilders are ALL tought to charge the ball and be aggresive. baserunners are always told to be smart and pay attention...obviously this kid wasnt paying attention.
@cardinalsfan4life06 you obviously have never played baseball in your life. feilders are ALL tought to charge the ball and be aggresive. baserunners are always told to be smart and pay attention...obviously this kid wasnt paying attention.
@gus2wwe actually i do play baseball i play 2nd base when there is a runner i wait back just behind the baseline. i still charge the ball but i dont go into a full sprint like this kid did. yes the runner is still called out but running in the baseline isnt very smart.
Interference...out, good call the fielder has the right to make the play. The runner must avoid contact. About the example of a rundown the fielder is told to get out of the way because he no longer has the ball and would be guilty of obstruction should contact occur.
I agree with the interference call but look how far they are from the base line. yea 2nd base to 3rd base line is big but still, I think its not really the defense fault becuz he tried gettin the ball on the ground.
@Sirias57 haha, you have no idea about the baseline! I bet you dont even know where or what the baseline is! Learn your rules before you comment on something you know nothing about!
when i was 9 i was playing 1st base and the SS made a bad throw and i went down to get it and the runner ran into me and then stepped all over me and fell, and he was the one who cried for some reason
The Runner is not out, ehe is safe and so is everybody else. As long as a runner is in the baseline he does not have to move or stop for the fielder. I am a college baseball player dont argue i knw tthe rules
No he is not bro I already told you If the runner is in the baseline he does not have to move. Why do you think your coach tells you to get out of the way as soon as you make your throw in a rundown. When a runner is in the baseline he has priority the fielder has to move for him. If the runner is outside the baseline then he would be out.
The runner has to give the fielder a chance to make the play. The fielder is protected in this situation. It's interference. The fielder is allowed an attempt to field the ball. A rundown situation is different. once the fielder throws the ball, he has to move.
Yeah, Dennie is exactly right. The runner is not allowed to interfere with the fielder when he is making a play on the ball. And yes, rundowns are different, because then you get into thrown balls and fielders interfering with the runner's direction.
Chuck, if you're a college ballplayer (I am as well) you should know that say, if you hit a pop up down the first base line you can't plow the pitcher or first baseman as they go to catch the ball, baseline or not. It's runner interference.
Really cuz you are playing at a higher level than me arnt you, Guy who made the video already explained it to me I simply got my rules mixed up so save it. Go get cut by your jv team again.
@chucktay187 ur a fuckin idiot dude. really. give me an example of interference and tell me how this is not it. u have absolutely no clue what u r talking about. and u r four so dont say ur in college.
@Willdabeest1 relax bro I already talked to the guy who was an umpire like 8 months ago, I def was wrong and got the rules backwords, but i did play in college and was looked at by 14 pro teams and chose to join the Marines rather then spend 10 years in double A. Believe me bro Im a baller and sorry that making a mistake on youtube made you so butthurt. Call me if you wanna learn how to play baseball like a beast puss nuts.
@Willdabeest1 o ok my bad your just the greatest thing since sliced bread huh?? why dont you get off the computer you fat fuck and go outside and lose some cheetos off your waist, rather then stuffing your face and scrolling down the comment page to try and be a hard ass on youtube. Im sorry the JV team cut you and you get thrown in lockers by the football team but one day youll find something your good at... Most likely it will be suicide.
Actually the runner is out because of interference ... you cannot collide with a player making a play on a hit ball. If this were an older kids or pro game the runner would be ejected more times than not I'm sure ... not to mention it might cause a fight or two.
I am glad to hear that both young men are alright after a nasty collision. I don't know what the call was by the umpires. Although the runner is suspose to TRY to avoid the collision,the runner is actually out because the ball hit him.
Perfect example of interference by the runner. It is amazing how so many people can misinterpret a simple rule. The runner has to avoid the fielder who is fielding a batted ball. He can run out of the baseline if that is necessary to avoid interference. Obstruction of the runner by the fielder is often missed at the LL level. Once the ball is NOT fielded on either a thrown or batted ball, the fielder needs to get out of the way of the runner.
A BATTED BALL is different from a thrown ball. A runner must avoid a fielder attempting to field a BATTED ball. If the runner interferes, he is out whether the interference is intentional or not. The fielder has all the rights on a batted ball. He must be allowed to move wherever he needs to, to field the ball and must not be hindered. He is considered in the act of fielding as soon as the ump judges that he is the fielder that will make the play.
Very simple, just do a search in YouTube under, "runner interference", it explained it at 50 sec. This is clearly a runner interference. The rules says, "When a fielder is making a play, or have a chance at making a play, runner should avoid the fielder."
You're correct, but there is a difference between the ruling for a thrown ball versus a batted ball. Thrown balls need a judgment of intent to interfere, to get an out. Batted balls don't. If the fielder isn't fielding either type of ball, then the runner has the right to the path, and the fielder must get out of the path.
its the runners responsibility to watch out for the ball in play but its the fielder's responsibility to watch out from getting in the way of the runner's path.
That is correct, the first guy comment can see he was on the ball when hit. That is how the Umps called it as he was in play of fielding the ball at the short stop position. The boy took himself out, he ended up ok, but was on the floor for a couple minutes more after the footage.
@swingerroger umm i think thats pretty much the infeilders fault he could have just waited for the ball a step back instead of getting in the way of the catcher
You're incorrect. The runner may run down the path if it is clear, but on a batted ball, if the fielder moves into the path to field the ball, the runner MUST avoid the fielder. Rule 7.08b, and 7.09L. You need to look it up.
@firstpickjim What about a play where there is a fielder standing in the path and no where near where the ball is being played. as in just standing there doing nothing.
@jacob12721 Obstruction is when the fielder impedes the runner when he is NOT making a play, or doesn't have the ball. It's interference by the runner, if the runner does anything to hinder a fielder when the fielder IS making a play on a ball. This play was interference. The fielder WAS making a play on the ball, and the runner ran into him. The runner must avoid a fielder who is making a play on a BATTED ball.
@ztroop21 You must have missed my other replies. Here's one; You're incorrect. The runner may run down the path if it is clear, but on a batted ball, if the fielder moves into the path to field the ball, the runner MUST avoid the fielder. Rule 7.08b, and 7.09L. You need to look it up.The runner must avoid a fielder who is making a play on a BATTED ball.
it is not the fielders responsibility to watch out from getting in the way of the runners path when hes going after the ball if he doesnt have the ball then yes he has to move
Fault is irrelevant. On a BATTED ball the fielder attempting to field it has all the rights and must not be hindered in any way, intentionally or not.
If the fielder is in the runner's path when he is not fielding any type of ball, then he is guilty of obstruction. The play in this video is no-brainer interference. The runner is required to avoid a fielder attempting to field a batted ball. 7.09L.

@dodger5905 the baserunner has to allow the fielder to make a play on the ball unless he is on the bag

@dodger5905 Yes, he is supposed to go around. The runner can't interfere with a fielder making a play on a ball.

the fielder can be in the basepath if he is fielding the ball and the runner has to go around so it is the last out of the game

no look it up if the runner is on the baseline he doesn't hav to go around have u ever seen that in major league baseball

You're incorrect. The runner may run down the path if it is clear, but on a batted ball, if the fielder moves into the path to field the ball, the runner MUST avoid the fielder. Rule 7.08b, and 7.09L. You need to look it up.

@firstpickjim Yep. Inerference. Intent is irrelevant.

@firstpickjim What about a play where there is a fielder standing in the path and no where near where the ball is being played. as in just standing there doing nothing.

@firstpickjim ypu i think its called obstruction right?
jacob12721 8 months ago
@jacob12721 Obstruction is when the fielder impedes the runner when he is NOT making a play, or doesn't have the ball. It's interference by the runner, if the runner does anything to hinder a fielder when the fielder IS making a play on a ball. This play was interference. The fielder WAS making a play on the ball, and the runner ran into him. The runner must avoid a fielder who is making a play on a BATTED ball.

@firstpickjim it's not his fault because the shortstop should get out of his way

not if hes in the runners path...
dodger5905 3 years ago
it is not the fielders responsibility to watch out from getting in the way of the runners path when hes going after the ball if he doesnt have the ball then yes he has to move
helpma1234 3 years ago
actually the runner doesnt have to look after the fielder if the runners in the baseline
fliptrickfan213 3 years ago
If it's a fielder's fault, the proper name is "fielder obstruction", not "interference".

oh well i dont play baseball i thought iterference was the best answer
dodger5905 3 years ago
Fault is irrelevant. On a BATTED ball the fielder attempting to field it has all the rights and must not be hindered in any way, intentionally or not.
If the fielder is in the runner's path when he is not fielding any type of ball, then he is guilty of obstruction. The play in this video is no-brainer interference. The runner is required to avoid a fielder attempting to field a batted ball. 7.09L.

this guy is right if the fielder is in the path of the runner and doesnt have the ball its interference on the fielder
dodgers92509 3 years ago
No. The fielder is making a play on a batted ball, so he's protected. Runner's out. Interference.
