Question #17 Runners may advance on dead ball appeals. Question #18 A coach may not interfere with a fielder who has a reasonable opportunity to make a play on a foul ball. Question #19 Should bad weather or unfit conditions exist during a game, the plate umpire shall be the final judge as to the suspension, resumption or termination of play. Question #20 Base runner leaving a base prior to release of the pitch is a delayed dead ball. Delayed dead ball is signaled.

The umpires rule triple play: R1 and R3 out for leaving early: B5 out for infield fly. 5

6 Question #38 With no outs R1 on first, R2 on second, and R3 on third when R3 leaves early. The batter hits a line drive that is caught by the second baseman. She throws to the shortstop at second base for the second out. The shortstop attempts to make it a triple play by throwing to first but throws the ball into a dead ball area. The defense may elect to have R3 called out for leaving early, R1 return to first, R2 return to second and the batter return to bat with the previous count. Or, the defense may elect to have R1 on third, R3 score (subject to possible appeal for tagging up after a caught fly ball), and two outs. Question #39 With R2 on second and R3 on third, the batter hits a fly ball that is caught for the second out. R3 legally tags and scores. R2 leaves early and is called out on appeal after R3 scored. The umpire allows the run. Question #40 Upon arrival to the field, each coach shall provide a printed copy of the current NCAA Approved Bat List available on the NCAA ( and SUP Arbiter Sports websites as amended through communication from the NCAA relating to bats added to or scratched from the list.

Question #43 The plate umpire, his/her crew and game management personnel shall determine whether playing conditions permit the start of the second game of a doubleheader. 6

7 Question #44 If the plate umpire believes a pitcher has intentionally thrown at a batter, he may eject the pitcher and catcher, but not the head coach without warning. Question #45 A base runner leaving a base prior to the release of the pitch is a delayed dead ball. Question #46 If both the DP and the Flex are playing defense, another player in the first 9 positions will be required to play offense only. Question #47 The batter does not have to attempt to avoid being hit by a pitched ball in the batter s box. Question #48 Team managers are responsible for duties assigned by the head and/or assistant coaches. Managers shall be held accountable for their actions as representatives of their institutions. Question #49 Umpires should give dented, bent, altered or illegal bats to the head coach so they can be kept out of the game.
