I am confused...
R1 on 2nd, R2 on 1st – 2 outs –
B3 hits a triple and 2 runs score – defense coach asks for time, PU grants time, coach appeals that R2 missed 3rd base
PU points to BU asking if R2 missed 3rd base – BU states he didn’t see it. PU then states, I saw R2 miss 3rd base, out. End of inning.
Just curious, if the PU saw R2 miss 3rd base, why would he ask the BU?
I understand the question...
This is PU's call (lead runners touch of 3rd), isn't it?
BU has BR.
So appeal was properly made to PU (NFHS) what protecol says he goes to BU?
... it's PU all the way.
Now if PU thinks he missed a possible touch or miss, and he goes to BU, it seems to me he is saying that he (PU) didn't see a miss. So if BU responds that "he didn't see it' (a touch or a miss), I don't see how you can grant the out on appeal.
