Thanks! That makes sense. I am not sure why the ump did not call it when it happened he was taking 2 - 3 steps between the ball being pitched and it reaching the plate.
So this happened this past weekend and I was confused on the call. Runners on 2nd and 3rd 2 outs. Runner on second had been leaving the base early all game so we asked the ump to watch for it specially on this play. Batter hits a ball to the outfield runners on 2nd and 3rd score and batter...
So this happened once to our team. We had a mercy rule if you were up by 20 after the third inning the game was over but our field had lights. After the first inning we were going station to station to get hits. But the bottom of the third came and we were up by 21 but wanted to keep playing...
During league I am usually that guy that wears his hat backwards in the field because that is just normally how I wear it everyday and I don't like it falling off every time a am chasing down a ball. Same reason on the base paths.
Any time an ump has asked me a turn it around I do with no problem.
