Situation:
-runner on 1st and 2nd base
-ball hit to deep center field
-runner on 2nd base is standing on the base waiting to tag up when the ball is caught
-after the ball is cleanly fielded by the center fielder the runner on 2nd tags up and tries to advance to 3rd base
-center fielder makes a high throw over the 3rd baseman's head and the ball is called dead/out of play
My question is, does the runner that is tagging up get 1 or 2 bases on this play?
Thank you in advance for your reply.
