| Did You Know... |
|
One of the largest misbeliefs in all of baseball is that the base line is defined as a straight line between the bases (with 3 feet allowed to either side)...and that runners are automatically out if they run out of the base line...and the base line belongs to the runners and if there’s a collision with a fielder and the runner is on the line, it is obstruction and the runner is awarded the next base.
All of the above are misbeliefs and are incorrect.
The realities are the base line is a straight line from the runner to the base he is going to at the time a tag attempt is made. If a runner really wants to, he can run past first base all the way to the foul pole, and then head towards second base. If a fielder then tries to tag him, the base line would be defined as a straight line between the right field foul pole and second base...and a runner is only out for running out of the base line if he is trying to avoid being tagged... and the base line belongs to the runner if the ball isn’t there but if a fielder is daydreaming on the base line and a runner runs into him, then it’s certainly obstruction...however, the runner not only should, but must get out of the base line if a fielder is trying to field a batted ball there, otherwise, the runner (not the fielder) will get called for interference and be out. |
