There is no such thing as a lucky hit.....

Ok.. I'm going to elaborate..

 

Man and ball get to first at exactly the same time. That's a tie..? Right? No, it's not in the rule book, but it's a tie. What do ya do..? 9 out of 10 umps would tell ya that they would call it to the runner UNLESS it's definitely an out - meaning the ball got there first in which case none of this matters.

 

That's all I meant kochy... relax  ;)

If the ball and runner get there at the same time, how does 1 ump out of 10 call him out because the ball beat him there?

 

Yes they can get there at the same time (and do often!)

 

but it's not ruled as a tie goes to the runner. it's either man beats ball or ball didn't beat man, however you want to look at it

There isn't

 

The ball has to beat the guy to the bag, there's no such thing as tie goes to the runner

It seems you're the one who injected the "tie goes to the runner" into this when what you quoted was a tie at first base.

 

Btw, "Tie goes to the runner" IS a judgement by the umpire and thus is covered by the rule book.

tie goes to the runner is not a judgment made by the umpire

Then who would make it????????????

tie goes to the runner is what would be printed in a baseball rule book.

 

a judgment made by the umpire is "safe" or "out" not "tie goes to the runner". the judgment is whether the ball beat the guy to the bag. what you are referring to is the rule that applies to the judgment made

Ugh!! You're hopeless.. :bang

 

Unspoken rules.

 

Ya know.. like the ones that will get you a swim with the fishes if you break them.. :rolleyes:

Maybe theyre not lucky, but they can still be ugly. A blooper over the head of the second baseman is a hit but its an ugly one. Not that sweet feeling you get about rocket doubles and stuff...

Wow , thanks roman I almost forgot what thread I was reading, I was almost positive this was a thread about if there is such thing as "tie goes to the runner."

In summary:

 

There are "ties" at first base where the ball and the runner arrive simultaneously.

 

The "tie goes to the runner" is not recognized in the rule book.

 

It is at the umpires discression whether he thinks the runner is safe or out, in other words, a judgement call.

 

Are we done now?

 

 

 

:rolleyes:
