The Umpire Question and Bases Loaded Dilemma
Reported Q and A discusses a bases loaded two out situation with three and two on. The runner from third is tagged out before crossing home as the runner from second advances and the catcher acts before the umpire. The answer states the runner is out and the run does not count due to forced advancement rules. It also notes the umpire does not enforce batting order and appeals are the defense’s responsibility.
