Baseball Rules Quizzes on Pitcher and Umpire Interaction
When a pitcher is announced in the lineup he must pitch until at least one batsman is retired and reaches first. If the umpire is struck by a batted ball on which no play has been made the batsman may take first base but runners cannot advance unless forced. If the umpire is hit by a throw ball the ball is treated as in play.
