Understanding the Baseball Force Play Basics
A force play occurs when runners must advance due to the batter becoming a runner. If no runner on first and the batter grounds to first, the fielder must touch first to retire the batter, forcing the runner to advance only if the play creates room for the batter to become a runner. The force ends when the ball reaches first in time and the batter is put out, at which point the runner may choose to advance or retreat based on the play.
