force. no run. Now you have to sell it because the concept will be foreign to most coaches

To me, the one you have to sell is the grounder to third, runners on second and third, no force, but the guy on second runs anyway. The run scores ahead of the tag at 3B, the run counts. If the 3B had just thrown to first, it doesn't count. Had this happen in our game this week - twice. We won 7-6. Luckily the Ump was up to it, though it took some convincing of the Home Book scorekeeper. Long discussion with the home coaches on those calls.

force out...no run scores...

by the way Senator... how is the former Miss Mandy Pepperidge?


(To clue in the uninitiated, Mandy Pepperidge is the sorority girl John "Bluto" Blutarsky kidnaps at the end of the movie Animal House.....and is later seen driving away with....and subsequently then identifed as Senator and Mrs. John Blutarsky.....")

Excellent Movie. Sadly, I was in college when that movie came out. Oh man, do I feel old.
