So do you watch when they're hitting and freshen up the cup when they're on defense, or watch them on defense and replenish while they hit? Or stay for 3 1/2 innings straight then run to the bar 'til it's over! :o :lol:
Don't worry about tomorrow. You did that yesterday.

Batter 1 flies out to center field for first out.
Batters 2-9 all reach base safely.
Batter 1 pops out to F3 in foul territory for out number two.
Batters 2-9 all reach base safely, with #4 and #9 batters going yard.
Batter 1 bunts this time but runs into the ball out of the box for out number three.

Batter 1 gets all three outs in the inning and batters 2-9 all score two runs each! Wonder what the odds are of this happening again?

Anybody else seeing odd innings or plays in high school ball?



In college baseball, there was once an unassisted triple play by F6, who never touched the ball. It was many years ago, and I can't find the reference (I used to have a newspaper clip, but I seem to have lost it).

Runners on 1st and second, no outs, very high popup to F6. Infield fly called, but the ball fell untouched next to F6. Since it was an infield fly, he was credited with the putout. For whatever reason, both runners were running like crazy on the pitch, and didn't stop immediately after the ball fell to the ground. The runner from 2B figured it out first, and made a 360 to return, passing the runner from 1B (who had rounded 2B and was on his way to 3B) as he did so. This was right in front of F6, who was credited with the second out when the lead runner passed the trail runner. The runner who had started at 1B then himself put on the brakes, and desperately turned to retouch 2B on his way back to 1B. As he did so, he plowed into F6 who was moving to retrieve the (still live) batted ball. Runner's interference, third out, again credited to F6.

Regards,

Scott

I was wondering why the starters were still in the game for round 3 of the debacle.
