You are out: MLB official rules state that the runner must touch the base before the ball is caught.
if the ball doesnt get to the first baseman before the batter does than yes, the batter would be safe and then benched(hence jimmy rollins)
if that happens then the batter tries to make it to first base before the catcher throwes it to the first baseman and if he beat es the ball he is safe
He is out. The bases only apply if he hits a ball that hits the ground or a wall in fair territory.
safe
The first main rule is that unless you are a goal keeper you cannot touch the ball with your arm or hand. You have to try and get the ball into your opponents goal by passing to your team mates. You must not kick the ball out otherwise the ball goes to your opponent. You must not make dangerous tackles but if you slide tackle someone and you touch the ball then you wont get shown a card but if you don't touch the ball and hurt the opponent at the same time then you will get a yellow card and possibly a red if the tackle was dangerous. Play safe and Have fun!!!
== Answer== It depends, If the batter hits a fly ball that is caught with less than two outs the original man on second is safe. If the runner from first can return to first before a defensive player can touch it with the ball he is also safe. If a ground ball is hit with less than two outs both runners are forced to advance. As long as the guy from first gets there before the ball he is safe and the original runner is out.
If it was a hit ball and the ball was stuck in the runners jersey then the runner is out assuming he had the first contact with the ball. If a fielder has the ball stuck in the jersey then the ball is dead and the hitter would be safe at first.
as long as it doesnt touch or get near or has you hitting the naval piercing. Of course.
Perfectly safe.
I think it is safe
Baseball QuestionIm pretty sure that the runner can either steal second or return to first. What ever is more safe. Answer:Once the batter is tagged out the runner can return to 1st base, however, until the batter is out, the runner at 1st is required to advance to 2nd (if he prefers, i guess he could just stand on 1st base, but he would not be safe, as 1st base would belong to the runner until he is out) ----- now further into question.. the above answer would refer to a batted ball where the batter put the ball in play with a swing or bunt -- if you are referring to a dropped 3rd strike -- if a runner is on 1st and there are less then 2 outs, the batter cannot advance on a dropped 3rd strike, he is just out --- if there were 2 outs in this situation.. once he is tagged out the half inning is over so what the guy does at 1st base is irrelevant
If there are runners on 1st and 3rd or bases loaded with less than two outs and the fly ball is in the infield, the umpire calls "Infield fly, the batter is out." In this case, the batter is out whether the ball is caught or dropped and all runners may return to their bases with no risk. If a runner wants to advance a base, they may do so at their won risk.If a batter hits a fly ball to the infield without the condition stated above, then it is like a normal fly ball, if it is caught it's and out. If it is not caught it is a safe ball and the defensive player must try to make the play at the base. These same rules for a fly-ball hit into the outfield.
