Help me settle a debate please. And if you have a source, even better!
2 outs. Bases loaded.
Batter hits one that passes SS and is picked up by LF.
LF throws the ball to 3rd. Tags runner from 2nd and makes the out.
Meanwhile, runner from 3rd crosses the plate.
Ump calls it out.
Run is not scored.
Should the run have counted?
It was a close game and people are still debating. The thing that throws it off was the fact that the ball headed to the outfield and took a few more seconds than it would have if the scenario had played out on the infield.
Any guidance to sources/rules is much appreciated!
