Dash, your reply makes perfect sense, but what rule is applied for this? And I would have one additional question similar to this, but dealing with a pitch. R-1 at first and running on the pitch, pitcher throws wild pitch that rebounds of catchers leg guard toward the dugout. R-1 rounds second and heads toward third. The catcher A) sees this and intentionally kicks the ball into the dugout B) unintentionally kicks the ball into the dugout. What is the base award? My reading of 2-28-4 is that the "pitch" has not yet ended and R-1 would be entitled to one base from the time of the pitch. But this application would be unfair to R-1 so looking for something to make it right. Only thing I could come up with was that this play is not addressed in the rules, giving the PU ability to craft an apporpriate remedy.
