What just happened?

[bulldognation]

Called out due to not retracing steps back to first properly?
Results in double play to end inning.

Didn’t touch 2nd base evidently on way back.

And there are some who think the third strike dropped ball is the dumbest rule.

 

[Lettuce]

Hell, I thought the ball hit off the wall

 

[PBDog]

The rule makes sense to me otherwise a running at third would cross the mound to get back to first ….. I have seen it before

 

[57stratdawg]

Think they missed that one.

Jim thought it was gone. Again.

Do you think the runner should be able to cut across the middle of the infield to get back to first?

Dropped strike three is the dumbest rule in bb

Following the base path back makes perfect sense.

 

[WilCoDawg]

Is that what he did?

I doubt it. I’m sure he knows the rules but I didn’t actually see the play.
