    Umpire position question

    using 1 or 2 steps fair from the A position puts you in an optimum position for just about any ground ball hit to an infielder. there is no need to come inside

    wheel play mechanics

    concerning 2 man mechanics,does ASA cover the mechanics on what some other organizations call the "wheel play" with a lone runner on third and a walk to the batter? also what would the same situation mechanics be in 3 man?

    Protection after a walk

    i believe they dont have to return directly to first base. they have the option of advancing to second base as long as they dont move towards first base first. once they make a move back to first base, they can not change their mind and then move towards second base.

    getting hit with a pitched ball......PONY interpretation

    thanks bretman.. i do some PONY but never realized the ruling for getting hit with a pitched ball was worded that way..... i always give your opinions and thoughts on rule interpretations my highest respect. im hoping that a well informed PONY umpire can shed some light on this. or maybe its...

    PONY pitchinng substitution rules

    a pitcher may be removed as a pitcher, moved to a different defensive position and return and return as a pitcher only once per inning provided the return as pitcher doesnt violate either the substututon or charged conference rule. your impression is correct

    getting hit with a pitched ball......PONY interpretation

    lol..look again....the 8-1-f reference was an ASA rule quote for a batter getting hit with a pitched ball not PONY. the correlating rule quote for PONY is 9-2 f...if you read them both you will see the difference between the two. PONY mandates that the batter will only be awarded 1st base if...

    getting hit with a pitched ball......PONY interpretation

    thank you bretman..thats what i would like to know. if the batter gets hit with the pitch while she is out of the box, what is PONY's ruling? as per rule 9-2-f she would not be awarded 1st base because she was not in the box when she got hit, it just doesnt seem to make sense

    getting hit with a pitched ball......PONY interpretation

    it doesnt happen often and i'd even say rarely but it does happen from time to time...i was just wondering what the PONY position was on it. ASA doesnt distinguish between being in the batters box or out but it appears that PONY does

    getting hit with a pitched ball......PONY interpretation

    you must not coach any slap hitters

    getting hit with a pitched ball......PONY interpretation

    when it comes to getting hit with a pitched ball, ASA makes no distinction about being in or out of the batters box when considering awarding her 1st base (8-1-f). ergo, a slap hitter in front of the box thats gets hit with a pitch, as long as the pitch isnt in the strike zone and she tries to...

    ball out of play

    an article in referee mag discussing a ball that gets stuck under fence says that some umpires " erroneously tell coaches (meaning players i guess) to raise your hand if the ball goes out of play. however if you go after the ball the ball is live and the runners can run. thats not what the...
