It depends on the circumstance. A ball can be thrown with a glove to a base in an attempt to force or tag out a runner. A ball can be thrown to a cutoff man with a glove. However, a pitcher cannot pitch with his glove.

If you are talking about a runner trying to score from 3rd. base yes, you can, (in most leagues, Little League and younger they may have added specific rules about this to limit the chance of player injuries.) If you are talking about during an "at bat" no. If the bat touches the catcher's glove on a pitch it is ruled cather's interference. The play is ruled dead and the batter is awarded first base. And no, I have never seen anybody who could hit a ball out of the catcher's glove and NOT touch the glove.

Yes. In the rare case that a batted ball gets stuck in the webbing of a glove a fielder may throw the glove to another fielder when attempting to put someone out.

It is not allowed! Some players would put a substence on them and cheat, or some gloves are better than others. It can easily alter the affect on the ball when thrown so they are not aloud.

Nothing. He is only penalized if the glove touches the ball. If the glove does touch the ball it is a three base penalty from the time of pitch.

If a runner is hit with the ball by a miss throw by to the second base man is the runner out?

No. To force an out, the defensive player has to touch the runner with the ball or touch the runner with the glove while the ball is in the glove. A thrown ball touching a runner does not count.


If a player catches a fly ball and in attempting to throw it to hold a runner but drops the ball is this an error on the player and is the hitter awarded a hit?

If the fielder catches the ball and, during the motion of reaching into the glove to grab the ball to throw, the ball drops to the ground the batter is called out. As long as the fielder has complete control of the ball before attempting to throw, the umpire will call the batter out.

Nothing happens but it reflects poorly on the player throwing the glove. If he does hit the ball with his glove a dead ball is called and the runners advance two bases and the fielder is charged with an error.
