August 11, 200322 yr Ok.. I'm going to elaborate.. Man and ball get to first at exactly the same time. That's a tie..? Right? No, it's not in the rule book, but it's a tie. What do ya do..? 9 out of 10 umps would tell ya that they would call it to the runner UNLESS it's definitely an out - meaning the ball got there first in which case none of this matters. That's all I meant kochy... relax If the ball and runner get there at the same time, how does 1 ump out of 10 call him out because the ball beat him there? Yes they can get there at the same time (and do often!) but it's not ruled as a tie goes to the runner. it's either man beats ball or ball didn't beat man, however you want to look at it
August 11, 200322 yr steff, go find where it says "tie goes to the runner" in a rulebook please this isn't even an argument Hot damn.. you said please!!! I know you wanted to say something else... like "b****... stfu" yes i said please.... and i'm waiting i don't need to swear to prove my point, but i have to get rid of this ridiculous myth I say it's so. i guess steffs word overrides the rule book Baaa haaa haaaa!!! I love you too Steff :finger
August 11, 200322 yr There isn't The ball has to beat the guy to the bag, there's no such thing as tie goes to the runner It seems you're the one who injected the "tie goes to the runner" into this when what you quoted was a tie at first base. Btw, "Tie goes to the runner" IS a judgement by the umpire and thus is covered by the rule book. tie goes to the runner is not a judgment made by the umpire Then who would make it???????????? tie goes to the runner is what would be printed in a baseball rule book. a judgment made by the umpire is "safe" or "out" not "tie goes to the runner". the judgment is whether the ball beat the guy to the bag. what you are referring to is the rule that applies to the judgment made

August 12, 200322 yr Maybe theyre not lucky, but they can still be ugly. A blooper over the head of the second baseman is a hit but its an ugly one. Not that sweet feeling you get about rocket doubles and stuff...

Not that sweet feeling you get about rocket doubles and stuff... Wow , thanks roman I almost forgot what thread I was reading, I was almost positive this was a thread about if there is such thing as "tie goes to the runner."
August 12, 200322 yr Ties always go to the opposition. Our guys just flat out beat it out or made the play in time, whichever the case may be.

The "tie goes to the runner" is not recognized in the rule book. It is at the umpires discression whether he thinks the runner is safe or out, in other words, a judgement call. Are we done now?
