Key word here is TAGS out. Run counts.

 

The tag doesn't negate it being a force play so the run does NOT count.

Bases loaded, one out. Batter hits soft liner to RF who traps ball, R3 easily scores, but R2 thinking ball was caught retreats to his original bases and R1 confused stops a few feet short of 2B and starts to go back to 1B. Defence now throws to 3B for the force out. After force out at 3B, BR passes the retreating R1 between 1B and 2B and is called out.

There is a throw made to 2B for the force there, but it is after BR has been called out for the third out.

 

Does the run count?

Great one, I would say no because it was a force out still that led to the 3rd out, but then again there were no outs to begin with.....i'll stick with no run scored but I'm sure I am wrong lol

 

 

This I don't know if is a rule in HS baseball but it is in the Major Leagues

 

R3 on 3rd base R2 on 2nd base 2 outs. Batter hits a flyball to deep center. As the center fielder runs back out of desperation as the ball is about to fly over his head he throws his hat in the air, hits the ball and the ball drops and the center fielder is able to make a diving catch.

What is the call?

There is one out when the original play starts.

I believe all are awarded 3 bases.

Clyde, that's my understanding of that rule as well.

Which one? 3 bases for throwing hat/glove at ball?

Yes. I don't know that I've ever been involved in a game where that has been called though.

Here's one I didnt know and I'll bet 90% do the same.

 

When laying and measuring bases out for your respected age group, do you measure to

 

A) From back point of home plate to frontside edge of 1st or 3rd base

B) From back point of home plate to center edge of base of 1st or 3rd base

C) From back point of home plate to backside edge of 1st or 3rd base

I believe all are awarded 3 bases.

 

That is correct. It is a "ground rule triple"

C is correct

 

and 2nd base of course is to the middle of the bag

This isn't a quiz, but a little known fact.

 

When a runner is on 1st and 3rd a right handed pitcher can fake a throw to 3rd and turn and throw to 1st. Yet if a left handed pitcher in the same situation can not fake a throw to 1st and turn to check the runner at 3rd, if he does it's a balk. Only for left handed pitchers, never understood why but it is what it is.

C is correct

Correct answer and mine is not a quiz either...

 

Just a little known fact and RULE that most do not know.:thumb:

No. Run scores. Game is over.

 

The award for rule 5-1-1f "Hit runner is out. Batter awarded first base and credited with single. Others return to base occupied at the time of interference unless forced by batter-runner"

 

Since the bases were loaded, they were all forced to advance and therefore the run scores.

 

Should still be the same rules application right?

 

Ball is dead. R1 is out. Batter awarded first base. Runners at 2nd and 3rd return to their bases. Bases still loaded, but 2 outs.

Nevermind. I interpreted that incorrectly. The run doesn't score. All are returned to their base. Batter gets first base. 2 outs.
