Batter-Runner Fails to Touch a Base
1. With the bases loaded and two outs, the batter (B1) triples, but misses touching 1st base. One run had scored when B1 missed first base. Three runs had scored before the play ended with B1 at third base. The defense then properly appeals the missed base and B1 is called out. How many runs count in this situation?
