Baseball rulings on fouls, backstop, and force plays
Umpire rules foul when the ball last disappears from view if it is over the fence in fair territory. A pitched ball striking a 60 foot backstop is dead and baserunners gain one base. A ball in play after hitting the umpire at second helps runners advance at their peril. A runner may advance once the fielder makes contact, not when the ball is just touched. A force-out occurs when a runner loses the right to his base due to the batter becoming a baserunner and advancing.
