Reply to "base awards"

The most basic simplification is one from the rubber, two from the field. That is a good basic beginning point but it needs to be broken down.
One from the rubber:
Forget RHP & LHP. One set of rules for both. Any throw while engaged is one base. As stated already, a jab step, jump step or spin on the rubber is one base. If he disengages by stepping back or dragging his foot off in a 3/1 move the he is an infielder and it becomes two bases.
Two from the field:
Any throw from a fielder will be two bases. First play by an inielder is TOP. Second play by an infielder or any play by an outfielder is TOT. The last part makes you have to know where the runners were when the fielder releases the ball.
Ball carried out play:
One base from the time the fielder accidently carries the ball out. Two bases if you feel he carried it out on purpose.
