Does the run count in a Gloucester baserunning puzzle
A reader question from New England baseball fans centers on a Gloucester game. With one out and runners on first and third, a fly to center is fielded and the runner from third scores before a first base out. Umpire Carpenter says the run does not count due to a continuous double play, while Fred L. Daniels argues the run cannot count since no runner advanced a base. Daniels cites two outs when the runner left third.
