when the ball is thrown out of play it becomes a dead ball, 1) can the runner go back and tag up while the ball is dead?? 2) does he have to wait for the umpire to award bases and then go back and tag up? what is the complete process??

NCASA below are their responses # 1) response Read Rule 4, section 6 Unreported subs/illegal players In your scenario all play stands after a pitch has been made. So all that went on prior to his discovery in previous innings stands. If the protest occurs right after he scored all...

NCASA & EA thx for the input, and just for info. since there were not many umpires answering this I e-mailed 2 UIC's from the USA rulebook and gave them the same exact scenario and received similar but not exact responses and both were similar but a little different just like your answers...

they started with 10 players but only 9 on the line up card and no one caught the missing player, and no subs were available, I know they can play with 9 but the short handed rule says (a. If a team begins play with the required number of players as listed, that team may continue a game with...

EA, thx for your answers and stating rules. so you are saying treat the starting player who is not on the line up as a sub?? I was hoping that NCASA ump or deputy uic houston would also give answers???

1) so there can be no forfeit? 2) does he get to stay in the game where does he bat? 3) is he ejected? 4) do his run and rbi's count? 5) do you know if there a specific USA/ASA rule or rule supplement to cover this so I can show my mgr. ??

no other player was in his place, the coach just messed up and didn't put his name on the line up sheet

4th inning and the defense realizes 1 of the players that had just scored was not on the official line up card, he was on the tournament roster but the coach made a mistake and didn't put him on line up card. The player had already batted a couple times scored and had 3 RBI's. Is there a...

Situation: Runners on 1st and 3rd, less than 2 outs. Shortstop catches a fly/foul ball and then unintentionally runs out of play. 1) What is the ruling and what bases are awarded? 2) do runners have to go back and tag if they left the bag before 1st touch/catch and does retuning to tag up...

hmmm, good answer tttwp, NCASA / DEP.UIC, do you agree with this? ( Runners are allowed to advance without liability to be put out)

so this is basically a timing play, even though it's a dead ball situation on the ground rule double? the runner on 3rd scores but the runner from 2nd doesn't score because the B/R passed the runner that was on 1st before he scored? the dead ball situation and awarding of 2 bases on the...

You make the call Bottom of the 7th inning. Bases loaded, two outs. Visiting team up by one run. Batter hits a fair ball for a ground rule double. Runner at third has touched home. Runner from second is between 3rd and home when the batter-runner passes the runner from first between first...

so once the pitcher touches the ball or it goes off his leg it's a live ball and the defense gets to make any play they can? the only time the runner would be out was if the ball went by the pitcher with no contact and then hit the runner while off the bag

runners on 1st and 2nd no outs, batter hits a ball up the middle which goes off the pitchers glove and then hits the runner who was advancing to 3rd, 1) is the runner out? 2) does this remain a live ball play on? 3) is the call also determined on if a defensive player had an opportunity to...

ok thx for the answer of the 1st part, but can he go back and tag up with the runner from 1st now standing on 2nd?
