re: Billy Hamilton jukes Pirates first baseman

quote:

(a) (1) He runs more than three feet away from his baseline to avoid being tagged unless his action is to avoid interference with a fielder fielding a batted ball. A runner?s baseline is established when the tag attempt occurs and is a straight line from the runner to the base he is attempting to reach safely

Exactly. So he is clearly out because from where the tag was attempted to where he landed is more than 3 feet.

You guys don't know baseball. He should not be out. The only time running inside the line like that would be an out is if a throw to first would have hit him.

I mean, you should't say stuff like this if you are wrong.
