The runner bitched out. I would've straight stood up and decked his ass. He just stared him down.

I dunno when he lunged at me I think I would have wrapped him up and taken him head first into home plate. Yeah you are way past the "stare down" if he's already knocked you down.

Good question. I'm pretty sure that, even if the ump awarded the runner home plate, he still has to physically touch it. The second runner coming home should be out. If the first runner never touches the plate, he should be out too. Rules are rules.

right if someone hits a ground rule double the runner on second cant run over the mound and touch home. he has to touch 3rd too. but on that obstruction call im sure the runner doesnt have to touch the plate. what if he had been injured? oh well no run? no. and the second runner definitely isnt out because the play is dead. im sure they sent him back to 3rd.

The rule I posted specifically disagrees with you.
quote:
what if he had been injured? oh well no run? no.
If a runner is injured and unable to advance on an awarded base, the coach would have to insert a pinch runner who would complete the play. No different than if a fielder is injured on a play. Rule 5.10 (c): When an accident incapacitates a player or an umpire; (1) If an accident to a runner is such as to prevent him from proceeding to a base to which he is entitled, as on a home run hit out of the playing field, or an award of one or more bases, a substitute runner shall be permitted to complete the play.

eh not so sure. the rule you posted is talking about if a ball is thrown into the dugout or a ground rule double. im pretty sure the umpire has the disrection to just award a run to the team without the guy having to touch the plate.

That is a pretty simple interference call. Runner scores, and any other runners get an additionl base. Eject the pitcher for poor sportsmanship and situation over.
