Can you tag the base with your bare hand with the ball in your glove?

The official rules state that a fielder need only hold a ball in his hand and touch a base. If the runner is forced to that base and the fielder touches the base while he is holding the ball, he is out. It does not say he has to step on the base. It just says he has to touch it. The runner, on the other hand, must be tagged with the hand that holds the ball.


Can you tag the base with your bare hand with the ball in your glove hand?

MLB Rule 2.00 states:A TAG is the action of a fielder in touching a base with his body while holding the ball securely and firmly in his hand or gloveThus, if the ball is held "securely and firmly" in your glove when you touch the base with ANY part of your body -- even your hand or the bottom of your foot -- that would be considered a "tag."Rule 7.08(e) states:Any runner is out when --...(e) He fails to reach the next base before a fielder tags him or the base, after he has been forced to advance by reason of the batter becoming a runner.Thus, if a fielder tags the base the runner must advance to, prior to the runner reaching that base, that runner is out. And touching a base with your hand while holding the ball in your glove would be considered a tag of the base.Note, however, that tagging a player is different, as stated in Rule 2.00 :A TAG is the action of a fielder in ... touching a runner with the ball, or with his hand or glove holding the ball, while holding the ball securely and firmly in his hand or glove.Thus, although you can tag a BASE with the hand that does not hold the ball, you can only tag a RUNNER with the hand (or glove) that is holding the ball.

If you have the ball in your hand do you have to touch the base with your foot or the hand with the ball in for a force out at first base?

You can step on the base for the out ... you can touch the bag with the hand that has the ball ... or this is my fave ... you can make a phantom tag ... that's when you close enough to the bag (with out making contact with the bag) to make the out ... the umpire will call the runner out ...Improvement:If you have the ball in your clear possession (in the glove, or your free hand) then the force out is in effect when any part of your body touches the bag before the running, whether it is foot, knee, either hand, or suppose any other body part you would use to tag a base --- the :phantom tag" mentioned above -- that is an umpire error and should not officially be an out

If the runner is tagged out then the fielder drops the ball and the runner touches the base is he out?

I will assume you mean when a batter has hit a ground ball to an infielder and the throw to first pulls the first baseman off the bag. On any force play, and the above would be considered a force play since the batter is forced to run when (s)he hits the ball, the batter would be called out because it is only necessary to have full possession of the ball and touch the base before the runner does.

In baseball while in the field if the ball is caught in one hand and the other hand reaches out to touch the bag is it a force out or does the ball hand have to touch the bag?

As long as the player has control of the ball in either hand or glove and any part of the body touches the bag it is an out (only for a force out).

It is not recommended to field a baseball barehanded, as it can lead to injuries such as cuts, bruises, or fractures. It is best to use a glove when fielding a baseball to protect your hands and improve your grip on the ball.
