Had a new one called on us tonight. Score was 15-6 bottom of the 5th, runner on 3rd, with one out. Guy at bat hits a blooper to shallow LF-LCF, guy on third never moves (slowest guy on our team). Ball falls in for a single, everybody is safe. Ump got pissed and told my guy on 3rd he would have made it, awarded him home and us the win by run-rule. When we asked what rule that was from, he told us it fell under the "Travesty of the Game" rule. When I asked what the heck he was talking about, he just walked off the field. I dont normally argue with blue over anything, but, this was something that just didn't sit right with me. I felt he robbed BOTH team's of a chance to play the game out. Is there any rule that says we HAVE to try to 10 run a team to win? I was at a loss tonight.
