Best Answer

If the first basemen has full possession of the ball before the collision and the ball comes loose as a result of a collision, it is an out. If the baserunner interferes with (collides with) the first basemen before the first basemen has made a play on the ball or while the first basemen is in the process of making a play on the ball, the runner is considered out for interference. Under no circumstance may a baserunner cause a collision with a fielder that is making a play on or has possession of the ball, unless it is the catcher. A baserunner can only be considered safe if the collision is at home plate with the catcher.

What is an error in baseball?

There is no such thing as an unforced error in Baseball. The term became popular with tennis announcers for a point scored on a mistake by one player that was not the result of a shot by his opponent. The term has been picked up by some Golf announcers, which makes no sense in that nothing an opponent does can cause a golfer to make a poor shot. Never heard the term applied to baseball, but suppose it could be used in reference to things like wild pitches, passed balls, throwing errors, etc.
