Does the run count in a school game where the catcher throws the ball back to the pitcher he misses it the umpire picks it up and tosses it back to the pitcher while the runner on third steals home?
If the umpire picked it up the run should not count because the umpire had probably called a timeout before he picked it up. If not the run should not count anyway because it is interference on the umpires part.
What are the defense positions in baseball?
When batting you need to have the batting stance. Elbows out, not to your side, non-dominant arm's elbow pointed at the pitcher. You should also be leaning backward on your dominant foot. You should also be horizontal to the pitcher. Afterthat, when the ball is in your sight and is out of the pitcher's hand, slide your dominant foot towards the pitcher, swing the bat and follow through. In offensive positions you usually have one foot on the base and one stepping off. You should be looking at the pitcher or batter and most of the time the catcher. Also, knees bent and hands on your knees can be very affective to get you ready to run.
Why does the pitcher get the credit or is charged when a TEAM wins or loses a game Why not the shortstop or the catcher?
The pitcher usually gets the most credit because they are suposively doing the most. Even though the catcher does just as much catching every pitch. The pitcher is right in the middle of everything and suposively the most import position......The whole team SHOULD get credit for it but usually dosn't....................

What is a pass ball?
Passed BallA pitch that should have been fielded by the catcher but was missed, allowing a runner to advance a base.Note: this is not the same thing as a wild pitch, which is scored as the pitchers fault.I presume you mean "passed ball." This is a ball that gets past the catcher when thrown by the pitcher, when the catcher should have caught it. It is distinct from a wild pitch, which is one where the pitcher, not the catcher, is considered to have been at fault. The distinction between the two have no effect on the final score. The decision on whether a ball is a wild pitch or a passed ball is made by the official scorer at the game.
If there are no outs and bases are loaded on a drop third strike. What should the catcher do?

What should a hazard traking system track?
A hazard tracking system should track identified hazards and progress towards their control or elimination.Hazard tracking systems may also track:injuries and illnesses,employee complaints,self-inspection results, andnear misses.
How do you get your pitcher not to be afraid of hitting the batter?
Have your pitcher only focus on the strike zone. Have him/her think they are a hunter. A hunter looks into the scope and looks straight down the barrel. In this case the barrel is the line from the pitcher's eyes to the strike zone. If he or she looks at the strike zone and the catcher's glove only, they should not have a problem with hitting batters.
Who should you report accidents and near misses to?
Your supervisor, who should write it up in an accident log-book.
Who takes the cutoff from left field in softball?
pitcher On a single to left field the third baseman will be the cutoff to home. The shortstop will cover third base. The pitcher will backup home. The catcher will make the call if a cut is needed and to what base. The center fielder should start toward left and once the ball has been fielded cleanly, he should go to back up second in case a throw is made there either from the cutoff or the catcher.
When the ball is bunted down the first base line who should field the ball?
it depends on where it is. if it is near home plate the catcher should get it. if it is closer to the pitchers mound than the catcher than the catcher should get it. you should call the other guy off if you are getting it so there will be no confusion on who is getting it.
