If the batter showed signs of trying to move out of the way to give the catcher a clear lane to throw then neither the batter or the runner it out.
If the batter did not move at all to provide the catcher a throwing lane, then the batter is out, but the runner is safe.
When the batter is standing on the plate.
Batter is out, the ball is dead when it hits the batter. Runner at third returns to third.
no. the batter can stay in the batters box as long as they dnt move when someone is stealing third base. if the batter tried to block the catcher tho by moving, the bater is out. if the catcher hits the batter and the batter is still standing in the batters box, and the catcher throws to third base and the third baseman tags the runner the runner is still safe.
yea because while the batter interfer with the catcher the play is normaily stoped
Yes
The batter or the runner? Either would have to be tagged to result in an out. The catcher (or any player) would have to have the ball and touch the runner from third. If you mean the batter is still in the batter's box and the ball rebounds and hits him then I would surmise that it is a judgment call by the umpire as to whether or not the batter was in the way of the catcher being able to make a play.
YES the catcher is SUPPOSED to block the plate as long as he has the ball. if the batter swings and hits the catcher the runner would return to third and the batter awarded first base. If the bases were loaded the catchers interference would force the runner home.
Throwing out the runner means that the batter hit the ball and a fielder fielded the ball and got the batter out running to first. It could also mean that the catcher threw the ball to second base when a girl was trying to steal and got her out. The same thing applies to third base.
Anytime a batter is walked it does not count as an at bat
they must go back,dead ball after hitting batter
Yes. The batter is awarded first base and all runners would be forced up a base allowing the runner from third to score.
yes
