@alcoraces No, the lead runner would be safe. He's the one with a right to the base. The fielder may have (hard to tell with shaky videos through a fence) tagged both. The trailing runner would be out. No way to tell what the base umpire did while the ball was in the air. He's not in the frame at...

@wdunh69733 The plate umpire is exactly where he should be. There is no reason for him to be anywhere in the infield. What manual teaches the mechanic you are describing?

1)The umpire could see the plate. I can't with the fence blocking the camera. 2)The umpire is still, the camera is bouncing. 3) The umpire waited to be shown the ball, which means a tag was made but possession of the ball needed to be verified. 4) The umpire is closer and in a better position tha...

@ All who say "legal slide": look up the definition or read it below. It isn't.

@ All who say "too far up the line": look again. He's a small step or so toward third. He's behind the plate, except for his right foot. He's also in the act of catching the ball when he's hit. No obstructon. The umpi...

@exasperated2 All these great musicians were brought together as a band for Saturday Night Live. They debuted on April 22, 1978. Murphy Dunne took Paul Schaffer's place in the movie (Schaffer had prior commitments). A few other members of the band did not appear in the movie. So, aside from Murph...

In ASA. since 2006, once the batter-runner reaches 1st base, they may touch any part of the whole rectangle. It is one base. However, only the batter-runner may run outside the basepath (to avoid a collision) when a play is being made on them at 1st. A baserunner going outside their established 3...

@moephoto64 How the ball becomes dead is irrelevant to the point. We are not discussing the number of bases awarded.The operational part of the rule here is a runner must touch or re-touch all the necessary bases, even when bases are "awarded". If they don't , it can be appealed and they can be ...

@x19GONGSHOW93x It will still be a highlight in his career (a World series appearance/ win/ring would probably be a "higher-light) and, ironically enough, the game will probably be better remembered by more people than if it had gone without a hitch. Why? Sites like this, highlight/lowlight foot...

@mccscene28 NFHS 2010 Baseball Rules Book, Rule 7, Section 3, Article 2: Batting Infractions- A batter shall not........ "hit the ball fair or foul while either foot or knee is touching the ground completely outside the lines of the batters box or touching home plate." ("or knee" was added this ...

@RUSSxT Calling someone "Pilgrim" is from "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence". (1962) Its what John Wayne's character called Jimmy Stewart's character. "Well, Pilgrim" became a standard line for comedians doing impressions of John Wayne.
