Answer to the latter question is when it first touches any part of the fielder. Had to toss a coach in OBA's once for that one...

That makes sense. Remove that potential loophole. In that situation I would still try it though. How many players actually know that rule? There's a chance you could confuse the runner into doing something stupid and the run not scoring in a spot where if you try nothing the game is over and you lose.

Last year we had an ump call our runner out because he left before the fielder had "full possession" of the ball. We were trying to explain the rule to him but he wouldn't listen. Fortunately the second ump talked to him and they overturned it and got it right.

Moreno first dinger tonight.

 

[canucksfan]

Kikuchi is frustrating

 

[as Pure as Evil]

with ryu going dowk kikuchi better figure it out for our sake.

 

[canucksfan]

He needs to throw his fastball more

 

[Maplebeasts]

Moreno's arm is absolutely elite. As is his pop time it appears. That ball was gone in a flash.

 

[canucksfan]

That was one of the best throws I’ve seen from a catcher. Ridiculous

 

[as Pure as Evil]

did he just make that throw from the overhand slot or whatever its called. like strip/buhrle/ our prospect from the chapman trade. i swear he went right over the top with the throw to second

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Moreno.... beast

 

[The Nemesis]

jeebus. Teoscar had all of that one. If only it could've stayed fair.

 

[Maplebeasts]

Kikuchi has negative control. The guy just can't consistently find the strike zone.

 

[Cleetus]

Kikuchi control

 

[Maplebeasts]

Ice Cream Man!

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Boom!!

 

[Da Cool Rula]

Yes Matty

 

[Maplebeasts]

Kikuchi is just terrible.

 

[Cleetus]

Dang it kikuchi

 

[trellaine201]

Kikuchi really sucks eh?

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Ugh I miss May Kikuchi

 

[Maplebeasts]

This is what you get when you can't locate your pitches worth beans. A bunch of BBs and way too many meatballs.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

And Richards isn't any better

 

[BertCorbeau]

Well this is disheartening after tying the game up.

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Well hope we get some better pitching at some point or this season is moot.
