I am in a chat right now with my fantasy league. We all thought this. We cannot find it in the rulebook.

Or tag Baez... he can't go back past the plate and a tag on a forced runner is considered a force out so no run scores.

This is all I can find

quote:

A.R. 3—On a tag play between home plate and first base, a batter-runner may retreat toward home plate to evade a tag, but shall be declared out after touching or passing home plate, or leaving the base line. The ball remains live. Therefore, a runner can back up to just before he would touch home plate.

That was my understanding as well. 80% sure the hitter should have been called out.

Perhaps I'm wrong. I may be thinking of a double play ball. I know if you are forced to move to the next base, such as from 1st to 2nd, you can't retreat back towards 1st.

That is remarkable Step on the base, simply apply the tag, or go full fricking retard

Those were his three options. He did not choose wisely

I know this is a NCAA Softball rule because I saw it discussed not long ago. Not sure about MLB though
