Its too bad you weren’t umpiring our last game.

Runner on 3^rd, 1 out. Batter shows bunt, pitcher throws the ball right at his head. Batter manages to get the bat up and put the ball in play, then drops the bat, hitting F2 as he goes to field the ball. Runner scores, F1 throws batter out at 1^st. I mark a run, a sac bunt, and an asst to F1 with a putout to F3.

Opposing coach calls time and complains to the PU. After a discussion, PU talks to BU. Call changed to offensive interference on the batter, ball’s dead. He’s out with the PO given to F2, runner sent back to 3^rd.
