| Jul 10, 2019 at 15:06 | comment | added | GreenMatt | @chepner: Yes, on appeal; that is the title of the subsection and is then explicitly stated as the first sentence thereof. And you can continue, but I'm done here. | |
| Jul 10, 2019 at 15:04 | comment | added | chepner | (c)(1) is explicitly about the runner being doubled up at 1st. The interesting bit is that the runner has the ability to get back to first before the appeal is made, as opposed to a situation, e.g., where he has already returned to the dugout after scoring on a sacrifice fly. | |
| Jul 10, 2019 at 15:02 | comment | added | GreenMatt | @chepner: Not that I want to get into some lengthy back & forth, but here's the text of 5.09(c)(1): "(c) Appeal Plays Any runner shall be called out, on appeal, when: (1) After a fly ball is caught, he fails to retouch his original base before he or his original base is tagged;" Right from the start, the section states that it applies to making an appeal, but no where in the OP is an appeal mentioned. | |
| Jul 10, 2019 at 14:30 | comment | added | chepner | 5.09(c)(1) is pretty clear; your idea of an appeal is one type of appeal play. | |
| Jul 10, 2019 at 14:11 | comment | added | GreenMatt | @chepner: The wording in those rule subsections is confusing, but I don't think this is an appeal play as laid out in the question. An appeal is when the defensive team tags the base after the play is over (but before the next pitch is made). | |
| Jul 10, 2019 at 13:16 | comment | added | chepner | Rules 5.09(b)(5) and 5.09(c)(1) call this an appeal play. | |
| Jun 9, 2019 at 20:08 | comment | added | GreenMatt | @PhilipKendall: Forgive me, but there's not a lot to explain here (it's basically a yes or no question), and I thought I had explained adequately for someone who is familiar with baseball. I've expanded a bit, hopefully adequately. | |

| Jun 9, 2019 at 19:10 | comment | added | GreenMatt | TBH, I thought the run wouldn't count, but in trying to verify that, I found several web sites that corrected that mistaken belief. You learn something new every day. :-) | |
