BLACK DEATH
RED DEATH now
Ok time is running out, less than two minutes. Pitcher intentionally walks a guy by telling umpire for him to take 1st base.
We have two outs and we are home team down by two runs.
We tell him to go into the dug out for the out. He touches 1st and then goes into the dug out.
Umpire says he is not out as he touched 1st base. Umpire said he should not have touched 1st base first.
We are trying to get clarification on what is the proper way to get a quicker out like this by going into the dug out. What works and what doesn’t work? I’m sure this happens a lot, I did a search and couldn’t get the answers.
Also Could the umpire give us the forfeit if he didn’t return to 1st? Or is that even a rule on that?
