Well, if the runner doesn't "go halfway", there will not be any reason to tell them to "come back"! :lol:

R1 is running from second to third as F6 is fielding grounder. As R1 reaches the base, the third base coach yells.........that's interference.

"That MTR is sharp as a tack"...

So, no matter where the ball is hit, would you tell your runners to stand on the bag and wait to see what happens :roll:

MTR...Dumb-ass OP of the day :!:

Runner on first, fly ball hit to left. You damn right go half way. The LF is not going to throw you out at first from deep left.
Stick to umpiring.......in Virginia


Hey ... I believe that is a Delaware play :lol: ... because we go halfway in VA. ... we even have a 'halfway-back and tag drill' because it's that important ...

Bases loaded, runners on 1 and 2 going half way on every pitch trying to draw a throw allowing runner on 3 to score...
At 12's anyway. Doesn't always work but it's kinda fun to watch.

Ya gotta love aggressive base running :D

This was another OP, that I had no idea what it meant. I thought maybe I was supposed to be saying "Go 30 feet." I should be keeping a file of these bits of wisdom.

Remember on Eteamz when someone would keep every post and then in a year it would be, but 12 months ago you said " blah, blah, blah?" That was always creepy.
