Three Situations from the Training Class
1. With one out and R3 on third base, the infield is playing deep. The batter hits a fair ground ball towards 3rd base. R3 attempts to get out of the way, but is struck by the grounder while standing on third base. What is the call?
2. With one out and R3 on third base, the batter hits a high fly foul ball near third base. R3 tries hard to both stay on the base and to avoid the 3rd baseman, but the two unintentionally collide and the ball drops in foul territory for a foul ball. What is the call?
3. With one out and R3 on third base, the batter hits a high fly foul ball near third base. The third base coach tries real hard to avoid getting in the way of the third baseman's attempt to catch the foul pop-up, but the 3rd baseman runs into the third base coach (while the coach is his coach's box). This prevents the third baseman from catching the foul ball. What is the call?
