According to MLB rule 7.08(f) "A runner is out when ... He is touched by a fair ball in fair territory before the ball has touched or passed an infielder. The ball is dead and no runner may score, nor runners advance, except runners forced to advance."
Since the ball is dead the instant it touches the runner, where it goes afterwards is irrelevant.
If the runner does not run to first base but instead walks back to the dugout he will be called out once he leaves the baseline. Then what happens is he may be fined by the team for not hustling.
In little league baseball, the home team dugout is the 3rd base dugout.
So if you have a runner on 1st and you want him to steal, type in the letter of the base he is on. In this situation you would press D because he is on first base.
in the game of baseball is the batter turned runner automatically out for going into the dugout thinking the play would be made, but the first baseman was never on the bag when the throw was received?
Whoever throws the ball into the dugout is credited with an error, and all base-runners advance 1 base.
In baseball the home team is in the first base dugout and the visiting team is in the third base dugout. So when the Devil Rays are playing at home they are in the first base dugout. When they are playing a road game, they are in the third base dugout.
The official rules of basebal state: Any runner after reaching first base who leaves the baseline heading for his dugout or his position believing that there is no further play, may be declared out if the ump judges the act of the runner to be considered abandoning his efforts to run the bases. Runner believing he is called out on a tag starts for the dugout and progresses a reasonable distance still indicating by his actions that he is out, shall be delcared out for abandoning the bases.
If the runner is standing on a base, nothing happens; the ball is live. If the runner is not standing on a base, the ball is declared dead and the runner is out.
no
I would say that it is a fair ball. When it goes into the dugout they call time.
runner is out
YES... the ball is always live till the umpire stops play ... if the ball goes into the dugout the runner get one (1) base if the goes into the stands the runner take two (2) bases... if there's a runner on base they take the next open base...
