Not necessarily. If the second baseman has another play to make (throw to first for a double play) the umpire can rule the batter going to first out for interference by the push. the umpire could eject the player if he feels the push was excessive or a flagrant attempt to injure.
he should thorw it to home.
Yes. Second and third base are considered scoring position because a runner should be able to score on a single to the outfield.
No way
the ball is not dead on ball four its still alive the runner at first is going to second. so im not sure how the question should be answerd the way your looking for it to be.
The runner is out. If there is any question, the player should ask the umpire or his coach, not an opposing player.
Second base is considered scoring position because any solid single should score that run. So, when a runner is on second and the team gets it's third out, it is often called "stranding a runner" but occasionally for flair someone might say they died at second, meaning they didn't score and the inning is over.
There is strong evidence that there is a black hole in the center of Milky Way, but there is no reason it should have a mass ejection in 2012
The first baseman should trail the runner on a first and third early steal primarily when there is a strong chance the runner on third will attempt to steal home. By trailing, the first baseman can cover the shortstop or second base, creating a potential play to catch the runner attempting to advance. This strategy also helps to prevent a quick throw to second base, as it keeps the defense alert to potential plays at both bases. However, the first baseman should also be aware of the pitcher’s pickoff moves and adjust accordingly.
I think this question is referring to hitting behind a baserunner to advance them? With a runner on second base if a hitter can hit the ball on the ground to the right side of the infield the runner on second base should be able to advance to third because the obvious play is to first for the out. Like a sacrifice, but not entirely, because there is a chance for a basehit.
That depends on where the 1st baseman fields the ball. If the 1st baseman can field the ball, throw to second, and have enough time to get safely back to the base to catch the return throw, then (s)he will cover. If not, then it is the responsibility of the pitcher.
Nothing in your situation. Only maybe if there is less than two outs and at least another runner on second. If there is less than two outs, the infield fly rule applies. The runner should stay on first base. The batsman would be out anyway. That is the purpose of the infield fly rule. It was put in when Ty Cobb had a similar situation. He was playing short stop. There were runners on first and second. A batter hit a pop up toward him. He yelled, "I got it." The runners stayed on first and second. He dropped the ball. Tagged the runner on second. Stepped on the base, and threw the ball to first for a triple play. Then baseball put in the infield fly rule. If there is a popup in the infield with zero or 1 outs, and runners on base that would be forced out, the batter is out and the runner should not advance.
Provided that there were no runner on 1st base and batter reached 1st before runner were tagged out, this is a hit. Batter alreay had first base, runner chose to go to 3rd, not forced. If he were forced, then it is a fielders choice.
