Text | [from answers to correspondents] A man is on second base; striker hit a foul; pitcher ran for the ball, but muffs it; then picked it up, threw it to second base, the man on second having started to go to third, and was returning to his base when the pitcher threw to second before runner got back to his base. The umpire decided that the man on second base was out, the pitcher not being in his position at the time of throwing the ball. I claim the runner not out. ... He was out. It was not necessary for the pitcher to be in position. |
